Apple Announces WWDC 2015 Takes Place June 8-12 at Moscone West

Apple announced on Tuesday that its annual Worldwide Developers Conference takes place this June 8 to 12 at Moscone West in San Francisco. WWDC 2015 will feature over 1,000 Apple engineers, more than 100 technical sessions, hands-on labs, and the Apple Design Awards. Apple also says it will share the future of iOS and OS X at the developer event, presumably iOS 9 and OS X 10.11.

“The App Store ignited an app ecosystem that is simply amazing, forever changing the lives of customers and creating millions of jobs worldwide,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “We’ve got incredible new technologies for iOS and OS X to share with developers at WWDC and around the world, and can’t wait to see the next generation of apps they create.”

This year's sessions will focus on a wide range of topics for Mac, iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch, including design, app frameworks, health and fitness, graphics and games, media, core OS technologies, development tools and languages, and enterprise. Labs will focus on technology, user interface design and the App Store.
