The content from the WWDC sessions you provided focuses on various tools and features related to Apple Pencil, SwiftUI, and privacy enhancements. Here's a summary of the relevant tools and toolkits discussed:
-
Apple Pencil and PencilKit:
- The session "Squeeze the most out of Apple Pencil" discusses the PK Tool Picker, which allows developers to integrate custom tools into their drawing apps. This includes configuring the tool picker with custom items and using the new APIs to enhance the drawing experience with Apple Pencil Pro. The session also highlights the ability to define available tools and integrate them with PK canvas view or custom drawing canvases. Squeeze the most out of Apple Pencil (05:20)
-
SwiftUI:
- In the "SwiftUI essentials" session, various tools are mentioned that help developers adopt SwiftUI incrementally. This includes integrating SwiftUI into existing apps or building new ones, using frameworks like Swift Data for persistent models, and Swift Charts for creating visualizations. These tools are part of the broader SwiftUI toolkit that aids in building great apps with declarative, compositional, and state-driven views.
-
Privacy Enhancements:
- The "What’s new in privacy" session introduces new tools like the FinanceKit transaction picker and the Image Playground picker, which allow apps to handle financial data and image generation in a privacy-conscious manner. These tools are designed to enhance user privacy by controlling the data shared with apps.
-
TipKit:
- The "Customize feature discovery with TipKit" session discusses tools for managing feature discovery in apps. TipKit provides a way to display tips at the right time to the right audience, using tools like Tip groups and CloudKit syncing to manage tip display across devices.
These sessions provide a comprehensive overview of the toolkits available for enhancing app functionality and user experience in the Apple ecosystem.
What’s new in UIKit
Explore everything new in UIKit, including tab and document launch experiences, transitions, and text and input changes. We’ll also discuss better-than-ever interoperability between UIKit and SwiftUI animations and gestures, as well as general improvements throughout UIKit.
What’s new in privacy
At Apple, we believe privacy is a fundamental human right. Learn about new and improved permission flows and other features that manage data in a privacy-preserving way, so that you can focus on creating great app experiences.
SwiftUI essentials
Join us on a tour of SwiftUI, Apple’s declarative user interface framework. Learn essential concepts for building apps in SwiftUI, like views, state variables, and layout. Discover the breadth of APIs for building fully featured experiences and crafting unique custom components. Whether you’re brand new to SwiftUI or an experienced developer, you’ll learn how to take advantage of what SwiftUI has to offer when building great apps.
Customize feature discovery with TipKit
Focused on feature discovery, the TipKit framework makes it easy to display tips in your app. Now you can group tips so features are discovered in the ideal order, make tips reusable with custom tip identifiers, match the look and feel to your app, and sync tips using CloudKit. Learn how you can use the latest advances in TipKit to help people discover everything your app has to offer.
Squeeze the most out of Apple Pencil
New in iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and visionOS 2, the PencilKit tool picker gains the ability to have completely custom tools, with custom attributes. Learn how to express your custom drawing experience in the tool picker using the same great tool picking experience available across the system. Discover how to access the new features of the Apple Pencil Pro, including roll angle, the squeeze gesture, and haptic feedback.
