Apple Hosted a ‘Cozy’ Mini WWDC for VisionOS
Todd Heberlein:
Cozy mysteries are a genre of crime fiction where the stories take
place in small, socially intimate communities, and any violence is
limited or happens offscreen. Yesterday, I experienced a “Cozy
WWDC,” and it was wonderful!
The event took place in an intimate setting with about 170
developers. There were no highly produced skits, no jabs at the
competition, no speculative non-existent products designed to make
the media and influencers lose their shit, and no media. The
event, titled “Envision the Future: Build Great Apps for
visionOS,” was held at the Apple Developer Center in Cupertino on
October 2nd.
It focused solely on visionOS and spanned just one day.
The presenters were live. Many wrote code and showed the results
live. Sometimes demos didn’t work the first time.
I have heard from a few other attendees that this was an excellent and very productive little event.
