Apple to host Worldwide Developers Conference in an all-online format

For the third year, Apple will also support students who love to code with the Swift Student Challenge

Apple has announced that its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) will be held from 6th to 10th June.

The online event will be free for all developers to attend and will showcase the latest innovations in iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS.

It will also give developers access to Apple engineers and technologies to learn how to create the latest apps and interactive experiences.

“At its heart, WWDC has always been a forum to create connection and build community,” said Susan Prescott, vice president of Worldwide Developer Relations and Enterprise and Education Marketing, Apple.

“In that spirit, WWDC22 invites developers from around the world to come together to explore how to bring their best ideas to life and push the envelope of what’s possible. We love connecting with our developers, and we hope all of our participants come away feeling energised by their experience.”

At WWDC, Apple’s growing global community of more than 30 million developers will gain insight and access to the technologies and tools.

According to the iPhone-maker, this year’s programme will also include more information sessions, more cutting-edge learning labs, more digital lounges to engage with attendees, and more localised content.
