Apples Worldwide Developers Conference, or WWDC for short, is an annual event organized by Apple that gets a ton of attention from all over the world. It’s one of the most anticipated technology events every year since its when Apple makes some of their biggest software and hardware announcements. We’ll look at an overview of the conference as a whole and then get into some of the more detailed history of the event since it first started. And when did it start exactly? Well the first WWDC was held back in 1987. The conference was and continues to be a massive showcase for Apple that gives journalists, developers, tech insiders, students, and the general public a chance to get a first look at new products and software to be released by the company. The five-day event begins on Monday morning with a keynote address followed by different sessions like workshop presentations, lab consultations, social events, and meetups until Friday when everything comes to an end. Sessions cover topics like programming, hardware changes, app design, and more, and are presented by Apple engineers themselves. Most of these sessions are filmed and live-streamed and made available for viewers on-demand after the conference. In addition to these sessions, conference-goers can meet with Apple developers one-on-one to workshop app ideas and prototypes or get advice on a variety of app-related topics.
