WWDC21 is officially in the books! This episode Rebekka and Tim discuss the results of their predictions, what they are most excited about from this year’s conference, and their overall experience of this second remote conference.

In this episode Rebekka and Tim are predicting what they think will announced during the DubDub 2021 keynote and state of the union. 

You can take along if you want. Happy guessing!

The rules: 

- 7 rounds, each round increases in points (1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21) so save best for last

- You get it right you get the points, if not you don’t get anything.

- Can’t pick the same thing, but can build on previous prediction

- Any prediction can be challenged by the other player, that means they can win extra points, or get negative points. 

- Tie-breaker: Length of the keynote, one sets the over under, the other one chooses

SwiftUI is almost two years old! In this episode Rebekka and Tim talk about their experiences with SwiftUI, the apps and features they have shipped with it and what they would like to see added at WWDC21.
