WWDC 2024: What to expect from Apple's annual event on June 10

Apple has unveiled the lineup for its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), including keynote and platforms State of the Union, which will start on June 10, 2024. The five-day free online conference brings the global Apple developer community together to provide them with insights into the latest technologies, tools, and frameworks coming to iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS, and watchOS. In this event, developers will hear from Apple engineers, designers, and other experts through more than 100 technical sessions, in-depth consultations, and live forums for guidance on building even more innovative and platform-differentiating apps and games across all Apple products.

Apple's much-anticipated keynote address will be on June 10, 2024. Apple says WWDC24 will kick off with a first look at major updates coming to Apple platforms later this year. The keynote address will be available to stream on apple.com/in, the Apple Developer app, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. On-demand playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream.

After the Keynote, the Platforms State of the Union will dive into the latest advances across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, tvOS, visionOS, and watchOS, and new tools for Apple developers. The Platforms State of the Union will be available to stream on the Apple Developer app and the Apple Developer website. A playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream on the Apple Developer app, website, and YouTube channel.

During this event, Apple Developer Programme members and Apple Developer Enterprise Programme members will be able to connect directly with experts through online labs and in-depth consultations for guidance on implementing the latest technologies, following best practices, and elevating their apps and games. Apple engineers and designers will also be available via live Apple Developer Forums to offer technical assistance.

Around 100 technical sessions will be released throughout the week in which WWDC24 will offer developers a chance to hear from Apple engineers, designers, and other experts for a deeper dive into the latest technologies and frameworks.

As part of the Swift Student Challenge, Apple this year will recognise 50 distinguished winners for submissions as they will visit Apple Park for a three-day experience with special activities throughout the week of WWDC.

The event will also see the Apple Design Awards, which will celebrate excellence in app and game design and highlight the expertise that developers bring to their work.
