Content
WWDC is held annually from Monday to Friday on one week in June. The conference consists
primarily of a keynote address, presentation sessions, one-on-one "lab" consultations, and special get-
togethers and events.[11]

The conference begins with a Monday morning keynote address by Tim Cook and other Apple
executives. (From 1998 until his resignation and death in 2011, Steve Jobs gave the keynote address,
which the media often called the Stevenote.[12]) It is attended by both conference attendees and the
media, since Apple regularly makes product announcements at the event. Hardware announced
during the address is sometimes exhibited in the conference hall afterwards. The keynote address is
followed in the afternoon by a Platforms State of the Union address, which highlights and
demonstrates changes in Apple's software developer platforms that are detailed in sessions later in the
week. The Apple Design Awards are also announced on the first day of the conference.[11]
Several session tracks run simultaneously from Tuesday through
Friday. The presentations cover programming, design, and other
topics and range from introductory to advanced. Almost all
regularly scheduled presentations are delivered by Apple
employees. These presentations are streamed live, and recordings
can be viewed on demand on the Apple Developer website in the
conference's iOS and tvOS applications.[11] Lunchtime sessions are
given by a variety of guest speakers who are industry experts in
technology and science; these sessions are not streamed or The Platforms State of the Union
recorded.[13] In the past, some sessions included question-and- address at WWDC 2017
answer time, and a popular Stump the Experts session featured
interaction between Apple employees and attendees.

At the labs, which run throughout the week, Apple engineers are
available for one-on-one consultations with developers in
attendance.[11] Experts in user interface design and accessibility
are also available for consultations by appointment.[14]

Apple organizes social get-togethers during the conference for

various groups, such as women in technology or developers
interested in internationalization or machine learning. The
Thursday evening Bash (previously the Beer Bash) at a nearby Stump the Experts at WWDC 2010

park features live music, food, and drinks for all attendees 21 years
or older.[13]

History

1980s

1983 – Apple Independent Software Developers Conference

In 1983, the first WWDC was held.[23] During this time, the event was called The Apple Independent
Software Developers Conference.[15][24] Participants of the event had to sign an NDA, so not much is
known about the event, but what is known is that people got a first look at Lisa, the world's first
personal computer with a graphical interface.[25]

1984 – Apple II Forever

In 1984, Jobs introduced the famous Macintosh, the second graphical interface personal computer, to
developers. This was also the first year the conference was open to the media.[25]

In the last week of April, in 2021 June 7–11
anticipation of the System 6.0 2022 June 6–10
launch, Apple announced
2023 June 5–9 Apple Park (video presentation, day one only)
several features that would be
included in the release. These 2024 June 10–14
features included a
notification manager that could send data to foreground applications, Macro Maker, a program
designed to create keyboard macros, Quickergraf, a performance enhancement to Quickdraw, and
enhancements to the system's print monitor.

For System 7.0, Apple announced additional features, including functions related to interapplication
communication, and MultiFinder would become a standard, integrated part of the operating system,
replacing Finder. Apple also addressed issues related to 32-bit graphics, including Color Quickdraw.

Greater multitasking was also emphasized, in the form of interprocess communications.[29][30]

In addition to these updates, Bill Atkinson introduced Version 1.2 of HyperCard, which provided
support for CD-ROM and other write-protected media.[31]

Summer, 1988
In the second week of September, Apple announced AppleTalk support for VMS and DECnet.[22]

1989
In 1989, System 7 was announced.[32][33]

1990s

1991
In 1991, WWDC saw the first public demonstration of QuickTime.[34]

1995
In 1995, WWDC'95 focused almost fully on the Copland project,[35] which by this time was able to be
demonstrated to some degree. Gil Amelio stated that the system was on-schedule to ship in beta form
in later summer with an initial commercial release in the very late fall. However, very few live demos
were offered, and no beta of the operating system was offered.

1996
In 1996, WWDC'96's primary emphasis was a new software component technology called
OpenDoc,[36] which allowed end users to compile an application from components offering features
they desired most. The OpenDoc consortium included Adobe, Lotus, others, and Apple. Apple touted
OpenDoc as the future foundation for application structure under Mac OS. As proof of concept, Apple
demonstrated a new end-user product called Cyberdog, a comprehensive Internet application
component suite offering users an integrated browser, email, FTP, telnet, finger and other services
built fully of user-exchangeable OpenDoc components. ClarisWorks (later renamed AppleWorks), a
principal product in Apple's wholly owned subsidiary Claris Corporation, was demonstrated as an
example of a pre-OpenDoc component architecture application modified to be able to contain
functional OpenDoc components.

1997
In 1997, WWDC marked the return of Steve Jobs as a consultant,[37] and his famous reaction to an
insult by a developer.[38] WWDC'97 was the first show after the purchase of NeXT, and focused on the
efforts to use OPENSTEP as the foundation of the next Mac OS. The plan at that time was to introduce
a new system then named Rhapsody, which would consist of a version of OPENSTEP modified with a
more Mac-like look and feel, the Yellow Box, along with a Blue Box that allowed extant Mac
applications to run under OS emulation. The show focused mainly on the work in progress, including
a short history of development efforts since the two development teams had been merged on February
4. Several new additions to the system were also demonstrated, including tabbed and outline views,
and a new object-based graphics layer (NSBezier).

1998
In 1998, in response to developer comments about the new operating system, the big announcement
at WWDC'98 was the introduction of Carbon, effectively a version of the classic Mac OS API
implemented on OpenStep. Under the original Rhapsody plans, classic applications would run in
sandboxed installation of the classic Mac OS, (called the Blue Box) and have no access to the new Mac
OS X features. To receive new features, such as protected memory and preemptive multitasking,
developers had to rewrite applications using the Yellow Box API. Developer complaints about the
major porting effort to what was then a shrinking market and warnings that they might simply
abandon the platform, led Apple to reconsider the original plan. Carbon addressed the problem by
dramatically reducing the effort needed, while exposing some of the new functions of the underlying
OS. Another major introduction at WWDC'98 was the Quartz imaging model, which replaced Display
PostScript with something akin to display PDF. Although the reasons for this switch remain unclear,
Quartz also included better support for the extant QuickDraw model from the classic OS, and (as later
learned) Java2D. Supporting QuickDraw directly in the graphics model also led to a related
announcement, that the Blue Box would now be invisible, integrated into the extant desktop, instead
of a separate window.

1999
In 1999, WWDC'99 was essentially a progress report as the plans outlined in WWDC'98 came to
fruition. Three major announcements were the opening of the operating system underlying the new
OS as Darwin, improvements to the Macintosh Finder, and the replacement of QuickDraw 3D with
OpenGL as the primary 3D API. The system formerly named OpenStep, and during development
termed Yellow Box, was formally renamed Cocoa. 2,563 developers attended.

2000s

2000
WWDC 2000 was another "progress report" before the upcoming release of Mac OS X. Recent
changes included a modified dock and improved versions of the developer tools. Developer Preview 4
was released at the show, with the commercial release pushed back to January 2001. Also,
WebObjects was dropped in price to a flat fee of US$699. Approximately 3,600 developers attended
and the band The Rippingtons played at the Apple campus.

2001
In 2001, Mac OS X had only recently been released, but WWDC'01 added the first release of Mac OS X
Server and WebObjects 5. Over 4,000 developers attended, and leather jackets with a large blue "X"
embroidered on the back were distributed to attendees.

2002
In 2002, Mac OS X v.10.2, QuickTime 6 and Rendezvous (now named Bonjour) were presented.[39]
Apple also said farewell to Mac OS 9 with a mock funeral,[37] and told the developers that no more
Mac OS 9 development would occur, reinforcing that the future of the Mac was now entirely on Mac
OS X,[40] thus shutting down the Classic Mac OS operating system.

2003
In 2003, WWDC 2003 demonstrated the Power Mac G5, previewed Mac OS X Panther (10.3),
announced the launch of Safari 1.0 (concluding its beta phase), and introduced the iApps: iPhoto,
iMovie, iDVD, etc.[32] Attendees received Apple's first model of the iSight web camera (to coincide
with the launch of iChat AV), pre-releases of Mac OS X 10.3 and Mac OS X 10.3 Server, the O'Reilly
book Cocoa in a Nutshell, and a 17-inch notebook carry bag. Apple also screened the Pixar film
Finding Nemo for attendees, ahead of its premiere in cinemas. Formerly scheduled for May 19 to 23
in San Jose, California, WWDC 2003 was rescheduled for June 23 to 27 at San Francisco's Moscone
Center. Approximately 3,000 developers attended.

2004
In 2004, WWDC was held from June 28 to July 2. Jobs noted that 3,500 developers attended, a 17%
increase from 2003. New displays were introduced in 23- and 30-inch widescreen. Mac OS X Tiger
(10.4) was previewed and iTunes 4.9, the first version with integrated podcast support, was demoed
by Jobs. All attendees received a developer preview of Tiger, a grey T-shirt with the Apple logo on the
front and "WWDC 2004" on the back, a backpack able to hold a 17-inch PowerBook, and a copy of
Apple Remote Desktop 2.0. The band Jimmy Eat World played at the Apple campus after attendees
were taken there by bus from Moscone Center West.

2005
WWDC 2005 was held from June 6 to 10. After a basic market update, Jobs announced that Apple
would transition the Mac to Intel processors. The keynote featured developers from Wolfram
Research, who discussed their experience porting Mathematica to Mac OS X on the Intel platform.
The conference consisted of 110 lab sessions and 95 presentation sessions, while more than 500 Apple
engineers were on site alongside 3,800 attendees from 45 countries. The band The Wallflowers played
at the Apple campus.

2006
In 2006, Jobs once again delivered the keynote presentation at the
WWDC, which was held from August 7 to 11 in Moscone Center
West, San Francisco. The Mac Pro was announced as a
replacement to the Power Mac G5, which was Apple's prior pro
desktop computer and the last remaining PowerPC-based Mac.
The standard Mac Pro featured two 2.66 GHz dual core Xeon
(Woodcrest) processors, 1 GB RAM, 250 GB hard drive, and a 256
MB video card. An Xserve update, based on the dual core Xeons,
was also announced. Redundant power and Lights Out BT performing at 2006 WWDC Bash
Management were further product improvements to Apple's held on 1 Infinite Loop Campus
server lineup. While certain key Mac OS X improvements were
undisclosed, there were 10 improvements in the next iteration,
Mac OS X Leopard (10.5), including: full 64-bit app support, Time Machine, Boot Camp, Front Row,
Photo Booth, Spaces (Virtual Desktops), Spotlight enhancements, Core Animation, Universal Access
enhancements, Mail enhancements, and Dashboard enhancements (including Dashcode, and iChat
enhancements). Along with the Leopard features that were announced, a major revision to the Mac
OS X Server product was announced. New features to the Server included: a simplified set-up process,
iCal Server (based on the CalDAV standard), Apple Teams (a set of web-based collaborative services),
Spotlight Server, and Podcast Producer. The 2006 WWDC attracted 4,200 developers from 48
countries, while there were 140 sessions and 100 hands-on labs for developers. More than 1,000
Apple engineers were present at the event, and the DJ BT performed at the Apple Campus in
Cupertino.

2007
WWDC 2007 was held from June 11 to 15 in Moscone Center West, and started with a keynote
presentation from Jobs. Apple presented a feature-complete beta of Mac OS X Leopard, even though
its release date was pushed back to October. Jobs announced that a version of Safari, Apple's
proprietary web browser, had been created for Windows, and that a beta release was being made
available online that same day. Apple also announced support for third-party development of the
then-upcoming iPhone via online web applications running in Safari on the handset. The
announcement implied that Apple, at least for the time being, had no plans to release an iPhone
software development kit (SDK), meaning that developers must use standard web protocols. Also,
Jobs noted during the keynote that more than 5,000 attendees were present at WWDC 2007,
breaking the prior year's record. The band Ozomatli played at the Yerba Buena Gardens.

2008
In 2008, WWDC 2008 took place from June 9 to 13 in Moscone Center West. Apple reported that, for
the first time, the conference had sold out. There were three tracks for developers, iPhone, Mac, and
IT. Announcements at the keynote included the App Store for iPhone and iPod Touch, the stable
version of the iPhone SDK, a subsidized 3G version of the iPhone for Worldwide markets,[41] version
2.0 of iPhone OS, Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6),[42] and the replacement/rebranding of .Mac as
MobileMe.[43] Seven years later, Yahoo News would describe 2008 as "perhaps the peak year for
WWDC product intros", which however was marred by problems with MobileMe that caused "one of
the biggest PR disasters in Apple history".[37] For the bash held June 12, the band Barenaked Ladies
played at the Yerba Buena Gardens.

2009
In 2009, WWDC 2009 took place from June 8 to 12 in Moscone Center West, and Apple reported that
the 2009 conference sold out in late April. Announcements at the keynote included the release of the
iPhone OS 3.0 software announced to developers in March, a demonstration of Mac OS X Snow
Leopard (10.6), the new 13" MacBook Pro, updates to the 15" and 17" MacBook Pros, and the new
iPhone 3GS. Phil Schiller, Apple's SVP for Product Marketing, presented the WWDC keynote this
year, instead of Jobs, who had taken medical leave of absence since the start of the year.[44] Attendees
received a neoprene messenger bag and the band Cake played at the Yerba Buena Gardens. This was
the first year plastic badges were used instead of printed paper badges.

2010s

2010
WWDC 2010 was announced on April 28, 2010[45] and held at
Moscone Center West from June 7 to 11.[46] Apple reported that
the conference was sold out within 8 days of tickets being made
available, even though tickets were only available at the full price
of US$1599 (2009 and prior, tickets could be bought with an
early-bird discount of US$300). On June 7, 2010, Jobs announced
the iPhone 4,[47] whose technical problems, combined with Jobs
blaming phone owners for them, would dominate the aftermath of
OK Go at 2010 WWDC Bash
the conference ("Antennagate").[37] Also at WWDC 2010, the
wearing conference jackets
renaming of iPhone OS to iOS was announced.[48] The
FaceTime[49] and iMovie app for iPhone[50] applications were also
announced. The band OK Go played at the Yerba Buena Gardens. Attendees received a black track
jacket with the letters "WWDC" across the vest and the number "10" stitched on the back.

2011
WWDC 2011 was held in Moscone Center West from June 6 to 10,
2011. The event reportedly sold out within just 12 hours of the
5,000 tickets being placed on sale on March 28, 2011.[51] The
ticket price also remained the same from the 2010 WWDC, selling
at US$1,599, however, after-market pricing for tickets ranged
from US$2,500 to US$3,500.[52] At the keynote, Apple unveiled
its next generation software: Mac OS X Lion, the eighth major
release of Mac OS X; iOS 5, the next version of Apple's advanced Moscone West during WWDC 2011
mobile operating system which powers the iPad, iPhone and iPod
Touch; and iCloud, Apple's upcoming cloud services offering.
Michael Franti and Spearhead played at the Bash in Yerba Buena Gardens on June 9. Attendees
received a black track jacket similar to that of the prior year, but with a smaller "WWDC" across the
front and the number "11" stitched on the back. This was the final Apple event hosted by Jobs during
his lifetime, before his death four months later.

2012
WWDC 2012 was held in Moscone Center West from June 11 to 15. The ticket price remained the same
as the 2010 WWDC, selling at US$1,599. Apple changed the purchasing process by requiring
purchases to be made using an Apple ID associated with a paid Apple developer account. Tickets went
on sale shortly after 8:30 am Eastern Time on Wednesday April 25, 2012, and were sold out within 1
hour and 43 minutes. The keynote highlighted the launch of Apple Maps,[37] and also announced new
models of the MacBook Air, and MacBook Pro including one with Retina Display. Apple also
showcased OS X Mountain Lion and iOS 6.[53]
In prior years, attendees were required to be at least 18 years old. In 2012, Apple changed this
requirement to at least 13 years after a minor who was "accidentally" awarded a student scholarship in
2011 successfully petitioned Tim Cook to retain the award. Despite the change, Beer Bash attendees
were still required to be 18 years old, and 21 years old to consume alcohol, in accord with local and
federal laws. Neon Trees performed at the WWDC Bash.[54]

2013
In 2013, WWDC 2013 was held from June 10 to 14, 2013 in Moscone Center West.[55][56] Tickets went
on sale at 10 am PDT on April 25, 2013,[55][56] selling out within 71 seconds (1 minute and 11
seconds).[57] Apple also announced that it would award 150 free WWDC 2013 Student Scholarship
tickets for young attendees to benefit from the conference's many workshops.[58]

In the keynote, Apple unveiled redesigned models of the Mac Pro, AirPort Time Capsule, AirPort
Extreme, and MacBook Air, and showcased OS X Mavericks, iOS 7, iWork for iCloud, and a new music
streaming service named iTunes Radio.[59] Vampire Weekend performed at the Bash on June 13 at
the Yerba Buena Gardens. Attendees received a black wind breaker with the letters "WWDC" across
the front and the number "13" stitched on the back.

2014
WWDC 2014 was held from June 2 to 6, 2014 in Moscone Center West.[60] For the first time, the
opportunity to buy tickets was given at random to developers who were members of an Apple
developer program at the time of the conference announcement, and who registered at Apple's
developer web site.[61][62] Apple also gave 200 free Student Scholarship tickets. The keynote began on
June 2 and Apple unveiled several new software items, including iOS 8—the largest update to iOS
since the release of the App Store—and OS X Yosemite, which features a redesigned interface inspired
by iOS. Announcements included the new programming language Swift, many developer kits and
tools for iOS 8, but no new hardware. Bastille performed at the Yerba Buena Gardens, and attendees
received a black windbreaker with the letters "WWDC" across the front and the number "14" stitched
on the back, along with a US$25 iTunes gift card to commemorate the 25th anniversary of WWDC.

2015
WWDC 2015 was held from June 8 to 12, 2015 in Moscone Center West in San Francisco. The major
announcements were the new features of iOS 9, the next version of OS X called OS X El Capitan, the
first major software update to the Apple Watch, the June 30 debut of Apple Music, and news that the
language Swift was becoming open-source software supporting iOS, OS X, and Linux.[63] The Beer
Bash was held at the Yerba Buena Gardens on June 11. Walk the Moon performed there.[64]

2016
WWDC 2016 was held from June 13 to 17, 2016, at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium and Moscone
Center West in San Francisco. The announcements at the event included renaming OS X to macOS,
the new version named macOS Sierra, as well as updates to iOS 10, watchOS 3, and tvOS 10. Apple
proclaimed that the keynote would be the largest ever for developers; this became the reality when
they allowed third-party developers to extend the functionality in Messages, Apple Maps, and Siri.
Cisco Systems and Apple announced a partnership at the 2016 WWDC.[65] Cisco APIs, accessed
through Cisco DevNet, were to have greater interoperability with Apple iOS and APIs.

The keynote was more about software updates and features, as no new hardware was introduced.
Apple released the Home App that works with HomeKit as a control center for all third-party
applications which provide functions for the home. Also, Swift Playgrounds was announced as an iPad
exclusive app that helps younger people learn to code with Apple's programming language
Swift.[66][67][68] APFS, Apple's new file system, was introduced.[69]

The Bash was performed by Good Charlotte at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium.

Scholarships
In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Apple replaced the
annual WWDC Scholarships with the Swift Student Challenge,[89]
a programming contest held before WWDC which centers on the
Swift programming language.[90][91] As of 2020, the program was
managed by Apple head of developer marketing Esther Hare. 350
winners are selected, who receive WWDC-themed clothing, a
metal pin set, the ability to meet Apple engineers,[92] a one-year
membership of the Apple Developer Program, and since 2022, a
pair of AirPods Pro.[93] In 2022, Tim Cook met with 12 of the
winners.[94] In 2023, students could also enter a lottery for in-
person attendance of WWDC at Apple Park.[95] In 2024, in-person
attendance was changed from a lottery to the 50 best projects out
of the 350 winners, these are dubbed "Distinguished Winners."[96]

The task is to create an interactive scene, shorter than 3 minutes,

Award of the Swift Student
inside Swift Playgrounds,[97][92] an Apple app that teaches Challenge 2022
introductory programming.[98] The projects are judged based on
technical accomplishment, creativity, and the text accompanying
the submission.[99]

The challenge is only open to students 13 or older in the United States, or the minimum age in their
jurisdiction (for example, 16 in the European Union[100]) who are currently enrolled in an accredited
school or have recently graduated,[92] and who are not working full-time as developers. Students can
win the award up to four times.[101] Students may win the Distinguished Winner award up to one
time.[102]

Related events
Several third-party conferences are held in conjunction with WWDC each year, including AltConf,
Layers, and NextDoor. Prominent podcasters Jim Dalrymple and John Gruber hold events nearby,
and former Apple evangelist James Dempsey performs a benefit concert.[103]
Previously, Apple also announced new products at Macworld Expo and Apple Expo. Apple continues
to hold "special events" throughout the year for product introductions, and on rare occasions releases
products without holding an event.
