There are a lot of Apple developers out there these days. And it often seems like few groups like to share information more than those who work in the Apple space. So where can you go to learn more about Apple development? There are a lots of websites and code camps, but what about annual conferences?

• WWDC: San Jose, CA – This is the grandaddy of them all. Hear from the people who build the frameworks and IDEs directly! But registration is limited and no everyone can go to that one place at that one date and time of the year. Also, different conferences can give different perspectives, so even if you go to WWDC every year, it’s worth looking at some of these other conferences as a +1!
• AltConf: San Jose – Everything from iBeacons to how to name a product. The big thing is that it’s held alongside WWDC so I mention it first. By developers for developers – but not really connected to Apple’s developer relations. 
• Mac Admin & Developer Conference UK: MacADUK is a great intersection between administration and development. A little bit of everything and a lot of smart. Grows every year. 
• DevWorld: 
• MacTech: This is more of an 
• Appdevcon: Amsterdam – I like conferences for and by developers. And I like Amsterdam. 
• Objective By The Sea: Hawaii!!! – Who doesn’t love a conference in Hawaii?!?! But more importantly, some of the top security minds in the Apple world have signed up for the inaugural conference to 
• dot Swift: Paris – A Swift conference in Paris. I prefer how to write code type of conferences, or why pick a framework. So there ya’ go. In Paris.
• RWdevCon: Washington, DC – I love the format of a tutorial-driven conference (and will likely emulate that in the future. Nothing gets rid of the silly touchy-feely stuff in tech conferences more than how-tos!
• Swift by Northwest
• iOSCon 2018: London – Any conference Aaron Hillegass ends up at is gonna’ be good. Especially if you live close. 
• iosdevuk: Aberystwyth, Wales, UK – iOS Development
• forwardSwift: San Francisco – Talk about new Swifty-bits!
• FunSwiftConf: New York – Fun is for Functional Swift!
• App Builders: Switzerland – My and for app developers. 
• try! Swift: New York and Tokyo
• DeveloperWeek: Oakland, CA – More of an overall development conference
• IndieDevStock: 
• Playgrounds: Australia – No dates or location for next year, but it’ll be good.
• Swift Summit
• MobileWorld Congress: Barcelona – More upper level but with good dev sessions. Warning, developers sent here might end up writing their own games long term!
• UIKonf: Berlin – I love these videos, test driven development, specific information about frameworks (often from the people that wrote the frameworks. Awesome.
• Teki-Con: Atlanta – Any conference Aaron Hillegass ends up at is gonna’ be good. Especially if you live close. 
• 360 iDev: Denver – Good technical workshops that focus on metal and frameworks and all the fun stuffs.
• Game Developers Conference: San Francisco – Guess what? Everything you learn building games translates to building any kind of app you could imagine. 
• ADDC: Barcelona – More of a focus on design than hard core coding techniques. Some people are into that!

I like engineering topics, but if you’re into the businessy side of Apps, check out:
