We're yet processing everything we've seen and heard at WWDC23. This was a truly packed event. And now we have to learn new thing – spatial computing. What it is, what it is for and many other questions. We're also reflecting on other announcements made at WWDC – new watchOS design language, SwiftData, SwiftUI observables, Swift macros and many other big and small changes across Apple platforms.

WWDC23 is just around the corner. Apple Treats team hopes that there will be some new hype. XR headset? Maybe. New Swift features – definitely. Something else – for sure. We're playing prediction games – what are we actually expecting from WWDC this year. We'll revise our predictions in the next episode.

The world is going crazy about generative machine learning models. Now it's not just funny profile pictures, but also chat bots. Or answering machines. Or even junior developers. Let's check what's this hype is all about. What are these large language models are capable of? How could they affect mobile apps? And what is the future of software development? And, yes, we're about our expectations for WWDC23.

For the finishing episode of the season we decided to look into next year. For the New Year some developers might want to see new Swift IDE to be released. And so... we've invited Marcin Krzyżanowski to discuss Swift Studio. And we even show it real life (you might want to watch this episode too). Was it hard to build new IDE? What is the main purpose of Swift Studio? How does recent VSCode Swift extension affects the development?

Summer is still quite busy time for developers. While Apple readies iOS for release, we're still doing our projects. So, let's look what are developers doing these days. We're getting into our own daily routines – and it's not just the podcast. How many hours we spend coding? Which frameworks we use and which we tend to avoid?
