Talk: 10 Years of Magic and Bliss (Just Kidding)
As developers in the Apple ecosystem, we aim to craft magical experiences that make users' lives easier and more delightful. But behind every seamless interaction lies a mountain of hard work, technical hurdles, and, let’s face it, a fair share of frustration.
In this keynote, I'll share lessons learned over a decade of developing and maintaining AudioKit, an open-source project dedicated to simplifying the creation of music and audio apps—tools that inherently feel magical.
With advancements in AI, AR, VR, and other emerging technologies, the expectations for what we deliver as developers have never been higher. Together, we’ll explore how these changes impact our work and consider what the future holds for apps, audio-related or otherwise.
