The iOS App Challenge is coming to SLO!  This is an awesome opportunity for you to learn Objective-C or hone your skills while competing for awesome prizes and having one-on-one time with Apple engineers.

Everything gets started with the kick-off meeting on Friday evening, October 18th where we will reveal the details of the competition and guidelines for the app. Before then, you should start reviewing the documentation at http://developer.apple.com. Figure out Xcode and start learning Objective-C so you can hit the ground running on October 18th. Any of the code you write now CANNOT be used in the competition but you can still start learning!

Apple engineers will be on-site at Cal Poly throughout the weekend with junk food and answers to your questions when you get stuck.

The deadline to submit your completed app is Sunday, October 20th, 2013 at 11:59pm Pacific time.

The following evening, Monday, October 21st, we'll have an event where we invite all Cal Poly students and faculty and friends to see your creation. You'll be given 3 minutes to demo your app on stage and then the judges will deliberate.

Register today!  You will receive an e-mail confirmation with details about what to study before the kick-off event.  If you have any questions, you can e-mail us at challenge@apple.com.
