So as someone who doesn't know how to program, could I learn swift and be good to make ios apps?

 

[Sobriquet]

WHAT ABOUT THE ZIBB ZORBS AND THE FLOOP QUARKS.

 

[Zaph]

This is going to be amazing for newcomers. Get into programming without fumbling with C first.

 

[Vexxan]

Holy shit, new programming language...didn't see that one coming.

"Disappointment"

"Boring"

"Lame"

Where are these people now?

"Widgets? What's the point? So you can have dual-clocks on your home screen? lol."

"Who needs custom keyboards? The iOS keyboard is perfect!"

"I don't need third party sharing!"

Where are these people now?

 

[Gamerloid]

Well, they weren't lying when they said that had great things in the DEV category

 

[smokeandmirrors]

oh man oh man this is amazing

So as someone who doesn't know how to program, could I learn swift and be good to make ios apps?

yes. it'll take some time but it looks like they are streamlining the process and making it easier.

 

[KingKong]

objective c is seriously the worst so this is awesome news

 

[Treythalomew]

This dude about to bust out his very own Flappy Bird clone in 5.

 

[Deadstar]

Need gif of head moving clapping guy!!!!! LOLOLOL

Yes, please! That was gold!

 

[Raitosaito]

Whoa, a new language!

 

[Tamanon]

Yup, going to learn this one. Looks super streamlined.

 

[Technosteve]

Xcode has auto complete?

 

[JustProgress]

Apple won

 

[railGUN]

I'm understanding everything being said for last few minutes.

Yep.

 

[Deku Tree]

This must be the end of the consumer level announcements.

 

[RedShift]

He's going to program a flappy bird clone calling it

 

[CrankyJay]

So as someone who doesn't know how to program, could I learn swift and be good to make ios apps?

probably not complex stuff...

 

[Squalor]

"Widgets? What's the point? So you can have dual-clocks on your home screen? lol."

"Who needs custom keyboards? The iOS keyboard is perfect!"

"I don't need third party sharing!"

Where are these people now?

Aww, are you mad Apple just won?

 

[Chris R]

Playground is the real megaton!

Yup, shit is awesome

 

[Majine]

This WWDC has had everything.

Well, except hardware, but that can wait for another day.

 

[Incandenza]

Woah, this is bananas.

 

[jyoung188]

I don't understand any of this!

 

[StrangeADT]

Xcode has auto complete?

Yes, and it is horrid for anything but Obj C.

 

[Fuchsdh]

Ok ill say what everyone is not saying. This is the biggest and best WWDC in terms of features, content and changes Apple has EVER done

We're not even done with the presentation and I'd say you're right. The only thing that comes close is WWDC 2005 and the Intel switch.

 

[smokeandmirrors]

playground and swift?

im in heaven

 

[nullref]

Devs are so thirsty right now lol...one more announcement and there'll be a full on technological orgy.

You ain't thirsty if you drankin

 

[Zaph]

OMFG

Seriously guys. This is such a great learning tool too. If any of you guys wanted to dip into programming, give this SDK a try.

 

[Thezez]

I... I can't, this is too much. Stop making me so happy and confused.

 

[helloresolven]

Holy shit. I'm so happy to be a Mac developer right now.

 

[nature boy]

Ok, for the 1st time I'm seriously impressed with a WWDC keynote.

I seriously doubt Google will be able to match Apple.

 

[Technosteve]

i've never seen this real time testing thing before

 

[Mashin Haters]

iOS exclusive??

 

[thefunkyman]

Aww, are you mad Apple just won?

Won what? These are features I've been using for years. I'm pleased that Apple users finally get to use them.

 

[Chris R]

Only bummer is the lack of new mac hardware Swift seems so damn cool.

 

[wenis]

This is dope. excited to get my hands on this.

 

[Red]

I said goddamn.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

what is going on

 

[sikkinixx]

Sdk stuff don't do nothin for me but iOS 8 looks great and more importantly the link between iOS and OS X gets much better.

Where are these people now?

Right here. None of this stuff interests me.

 

[sfedai0]

Holy shit, new wave of programmers incoming.

 

[gutterboy44]

I feel bad for the dev who had killer canon ball and blimp game in the holster. They are just gonna seem like clones now.

 

[TrickyDaddy]

3rd party keyboard support in ios8. Thank god.

 

[krypt0nian]

Right here. None of this stuff interests me.

As a DEV conference, I'm not sure that matters. LOL

 

[Deadstar]

Right here. None of this stuff interests me.

It does interest you. You can send voice/video messages now.

[victreeb3l]

My iOS dev friends on Twitter are going insane right now lol

 

[fierrotlepou]

This game is so good you don't even have to touch anything! It plays itself. A true cinematic experience.

 

[The_Inquisitor]

iOS8 beta today. It's time.
