Full Transcript of Apple's WWDC 2014 Keynote: OS X 10.10, iOS 8, and More [Keynote Ended]

[weckart]

FFS... you can install 3rd party keyboards. Wow !

You=developers

 

[Mackie924]

Wow, what would it take to impress you? Free teleportation to the Moon?

The features they are announcing today are *huge*. *Way* more than incremental upgrades.

Aside from the Continuity from the Mac, which despite my not owning any iOS device I admit is pretty cool, what else should have impressed me?

3rd party keyboards? An even faster Safari? Translucency?

Sorry for not being blown away.

 

[KdParker]

Great....

more languages

 

[Nozuka]

lol my apple tv crashed

 

[puckhead193]

So glad I have all these new new features in the dev. kit so I can play flappy bird and fruit ninja.

 

[maflynn]

New programming language - not sure about that.

 

[leman]

I would be very happy if Metal was also available with 10.10

 

[D.T.]

A new +language+ ? Holy smokes. Wow, the language features sound fantastic. Runs “next” to Obj-C. Awesome.

That small syntax example looked Ruby-esque.

 

[apolloa]

NEW Graphics platform and programming language!!!! They are VERY brave. What say you devs?

 

[UBS28]

Are you forced to use swift or can you keep using Objective-C?

 

[Eidorian]

aww he's just new to apple

the excitement hasn't worn off yet

After the years you end up jaded and skeptical.

 

[stridemat]

New programming language - not sure about that.

It's massive. Devs are really going to like this!

 

[zedsdead]

Apple seems to be hitting a home run this year. Really great stuff across the board.

 

[johnnnw]

Is drawing lines in sand really that demanding?

 

[2984839]

If it works, then let everyone copy. Imitation is the best form of flattery . iOS will probably simplify it for the masses. I love what I am seeing.

Tell that to Apple's lawyers.

 

[iBug2]

Ok Swift is THE surprise of the event!!!

 

[maflynn]

It's massive. Devs are really going to like this!

Really? learning yet another language to produce code

 

[TouchMint.com]

Blown away

 

[carjakester]

can someone explain the significance of a new programming language?

 

[Parasprite]

I hope they do well with this transition from Objective-C right otherwise this is gonna hurt really hard. People have years and years of experience with it...

 

[The Doctor11]

Oh my god this sounds awesome. Sounds like now iOS has everythig

 

[deaglecat]

Swift ..... interpreted or compiled... or just in time compiled ?

 

[Hustler1337]

So I just spent 5 weeks, hours on hours trying to learn Objective-C and Tim Cook pulls out Swift? :|

 

[497902]

It's massive. Devs are really going to like this!

I'm a dev and I'm not sure if I like it. It means relearning. Yes, it seems to be very interesting, but still...

Preparation for ARM processors.
