Apple’s WWDC 2020 will kick off on June 22 the company has announced today, with a very different setting for the online-only Worldwide Developers Conference. Rather than hold an in-person event as in years previous, Apple has switched to a fully virtual conference as a way of working around limitations imposed by the coronavirus pandemic.
The result will be a markedly changed WWDC. Unlike in past years, where demand for tickets has outstripped supply considerably, the virtual WWDC 2020 will be free for all developers to take part in.
It’ll be accessed through the Apple Developer app, and the Apple Developer website. In addition for 2020, there’ll be a new Swift Student Challenge, focusing on encouraging younger coders into learning the Swift programming language.
