how to build app | Ask WWDC

To build an app using Apple's platforms, you can leverage several tools and frameworks introduced at WWDC. Here are some key points to consider:

Swift and SwiftUI: These are the primary languages and frameworks for building apps across Apple's platforms, including iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS. SwiftUI allows you to create user interfaces with a declarative syntax, making it easier to build and maintain your app's UI.
Xcode: This is the integrated development environment (IDE) for building apps on Apple platforms. It provides tools for coding, testing, and debugging your app. Xcode also includes features like Swiftassist, which can help with coding tasks and experimenting with new APIs. You can learn more about Xcode essentials in the session Xcode essentials.
Swiftassist: Introduced in the Platforms State of the Union, Swiftassist is a companion tool in Xcode that helps with coding tasks, answering questions, and prototyping. It uses a powerful model that runs in the cloud to assist developers in writing Swift code. You can see more about Swiftassist in the session Platforms State of the Union.
App Intents: This framework allows you to bring your app's core features to users through shortcuts, widgets, and other integrations. It helps in creating a seamless user experience by making your app's features easily accessible. For more details, check the session Bring your app’s core features to users with App Intents.
VisionOS: If you're interested in building apps for Apple's Vision Pro, you can use VisionOS to create immersive experiences. The session Design great visionOS apps provides insights into designing apps for this platform.

By utilizing these tools and frameworks, you can build robust and innovative apps for Apple's ecosystem.
