Its current focus is to encourage the development of high quality, well maintained libraries and tools that the community can reliably lean on. In this talk, we will review the latest development since the SSWG was announced Sept 2018, describe the incubation process and how to get involved, and dive into the details of some of the active projects and proposals the community and teams are working on.",

                "videoId": "bMMWf-Dr7kY",
                "details": "It’s never been a better time to start learning how to code. Technologies are evolving and growing every day, and with Apple’s recent advances in Swift and Swift playgrounds, Apple development has never been easier to try. However in the tech industry, there still exists a large gap between individuals trying to enter the industry as a Software Engineer, and the hiring demands of tech companies trying to fill their engineering roles. This talk will focus on this gap - the leaky bucket we see in the demographics of Software Engineers. We’ll talk about how we as Software Engineers can strengthen the existing Apple developer community by discussing how we can extend a hand to those trying to enter. This will involve topics such as sharing perpsectives from non-Software Engineers about the difficulties of breaking the barrier, as well as the unique opportunity that Swift and this Apple developer community can provide.",
