Apple announced that it will hold its 34th annual Worldwide Developers Conference from Monday, June 5th through Friday, June 9th at its headquarters in Cupertino, California.
The conference will kick off with a “special all-day event” that includes the regular keynote address and the platform’s State of the Union address. Like last year, some or all of them will be presented in pre-recorded video format rather than live presentations on stage, according to Apple’s wording on his website.

Even so, the headset probably won’t be available until June of this year. What to expect from Apple in an even further release (perhaps with the new flagship iPhone in September, or later) so that developers can start creating applications, games, and experiences for the new platform. is much more likely to outline the .
WWDC also coincides with Apple’s Swift Student Challenge, a coding competition for students. The application deadline for the challenge is April 19th.
