Apple World Wide Developers Conference - Swift Student Challenge 2020

Congratulations to Euan Traynor on winning the prestigious Apple World Wide Developers Conference (WWDC) Swift Student Challenge for 2020. 

This competition is offered to students in Universities, Colleges and High Schools across the globe. Worldwide, there were three hundred and fifty winners, ten winners in Australia and one in Adelaide. Euan, a Year 11 student at University Senior College, was inspired to enter WWDC after a friend of his won the competition in 2019. For his submission, Euan built a Swift Playground which would teach others braille in fun and interactive ways.

This year fifteen winners, including Euan, met on Webex with the Vice President of Environment Policy and Social Initiatives, Lisa Jackson and were also fortunate enough to meet with Apple CEO, Tim Cook. Euan said he was honoured and excited by the opportunity. His dream is to one day work for Apple as an iOS Developer, and his passion will certainly support him to reach his goals in the future. Congratulations Euan!
