The WWDC is more than just a script with more or less issues. Although we will not discuss cancellation of an event that has not yet been announced, the flexibility of the building is our own the victims unity We refer, of course, to him communication resulting from these types of events, as well as minor and non-reporting events.
With the exception of the WWDC which brings together thousands of similar interests, there is everything ecological system around him that is afraid.
Goodbye to the communications engineer
The WWDC does not end when Tim Cook leaves to bid farewell to the stage of the big name. Instead, it starts. It was then that the present were leaving their seats when the WWDC began. With the new system unveiled and new developments, developers are working.
During the past year, hundreds of different workshops were held. With a variety of topics such as MacOS security improvements, the creation of apps with multiple windows or the creation of interactive shortcuts. From general features, such as the integration of privacy into app design, it goes straight, such as object detection models machine learning.
Networking is also something Apple wants, because it promotes a community of active developers and systems
All of these moments are on Apple's developer page. Videos keep between 10 minutes and the whole hour. And in addition, we find resources for each topic, useful for use. But something is missing.
The human element It is very important for these events. They allow you to connect with people who share your interests, problems, concerns and solutions. Making contacts is essential to building a professional career, whether through joint projects or businesses, or by finding or promoting a career.
This is a difficult deal to make. Because, as we know, points can only be merged backwards.
From AltConf to Daring Fireball live
In addition to networking, lunch, food and subsequent parties, there are other events that skip the WWDC. There are two very important ones, namely AltConf and John Gruber's live podcast. About the first, it is a unique and similar conference
Its main purpose is to recruit people who have not yet received a ticket to the WWDC, to create a community again communication. During keyword too Apple & # 39; s State of the Union (another expression of great importance) attendees watched both presentations from the meeting room. Apart from this, it has numerous sessions, workshops and conferences during keyword week.
It's a free event, supported by donations, sponsors and volunteers. If Apple's conference isn't held by the audience, AltConf will lose consciousness. Although in recent years satellite events have been held in other cities around the world.
In three or four editions, the word Blogger and podcaster John Gruber maintains a live edition of his podcast The Talk Show. In it has been able to bring guests to Apple's management, size of Phil Schiller, Greg Joswiak and Craig Federighi. The event requires you to purchase a ticket and has limited capacity and treats exciting topics such as APFS title deeds. Again, here's to playing communication because surrender to your contacts.
In addition to these conferences, there is a long list of informal meetings. Normal to meet Few are there and more sporadic. Finally there is a whole ecosystem around the WWDC and that depends on it. If the company had decided on a different format, based on videoconference, many of them would have been meaningless.
It's too early to advance events. Apple hasn't announced any specific date yet, so always You can wait a few weeks Let's take a look at how the panorama developed.
