The developer selection
WWDC, as its name suggests, is primarily dedicated to developers. For them, Apple therefore thought of publishing a video which lists the main new features in the back-end, particularly on the side ofSwiftUIand the platformXcode.
Note: iOS 17, macOS Sonoma, iPadOS 17 and watchOS 10 are already available in developer beta, free of charge. And to go further, there are dozens of video sessions for app creators for all the new features of these operating systems. These are accessible onthe Apple site dedicated to them.
