The WWDC Scholarship (This year named "Swift Student Challenge") is an annual competition organized by Apple where students from all the world compete for the chance to flight to California to attend the World Wide Developer Conference held usually at the start of June. The students have to send a project using the Swift programming language and the Swift Playground format developed on either the iPad app, macOS app or Xcode. The projects are accompanied by two or three 500 words max essays about the inspiration of the project and the technologies used. The selection process is usually a month long, in which Apple judges will see the submissions.
