One week to go till WWDC, which implies it’s time to recap what’s occurring, irrespective of the way you’ll be attending: Totally distant, in-person with an area group, or on-site in Cupertino.
It’s good to see that Apple continues to recognise group occasions on the official web site, however I discovered having all the distant occasions listed alongside the in-person ones slightly overwhelming. What it does present is how a lot stuff goes on round this convention. With greater than 30 occasions and watch events listed worldwide, the convention shouldn’t have to be a solo expertise until you need it to be! If the “record of every part” on the official web site is an excessive amount of, there’s a way more structured community-curated model in Paul Hudson’s WWDC occasions repository.
The primary community-run occasion is One Extra Factor. I wrote some phrases on this brand-new occasion a number of weeks in the past once they first introduced it, and it appears to be like like issues are coming collectively. There’s a partial record of audio system on the positioning, particular occasions working all week, and naturally, this would be the greatest place to view the keynote should you’re in Cupertino with out a golden ticket. 🎟️
However that’s not it relating to group occasions, with espresso occasions each morning and not less than one night occasion per day, you received’t be wanting associates should you’re in Cupertino for the week.
What else? Properly no WWDC week can be full with out a “Dwell close to WWDC” profit live performance from James Dempsey and the Breakpoints, and fortunately, the week is full! 🎸
A very powerful factor you are able to do now’s get your tickets for any occasions you’d prefer to attend. Nearly all occasions require registration or a ticket, they usually’ll promote out so don’t delay!
I’ll be following alongside from house this yr, however will nonetheless sing alongside to “Yet another factor…” on Wednesday night as if I had been there. 👍
