Apple WWDC 2025 Highlights

one year ago Apple Inc attempted a hostile rebranding of the letters AI by changing it from artificial intelligence to Apple Intelligence At the time people called it genius But ultimately the move failed when we learned that AI is just actual Indians This year Apple is back at it attempting another hostile rebrand by taking the gimmicky web development trend of glass morphism and renaming it liquid glass which is the new design language in iOS 26 that maximizes transparency I have to admit it does look nice but Microsoft also tried glass morphism on Windows Vista over a decade ago which is considered by many to be one of the worst Windows distros ever released It kind of feels like Apple just needed to do something to refresh the design system and ran out of ideas But Liquid Ass wasn't the only big announcement What's far more exciting are things like JavaScript Linux containers and Apple's new paper that discovered how AI is not all that intelligent In today's video we'll break down everything you need to know about Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference It is June 11th 2025 and you're watching the Code Report One of the most interesting announcements for developers is that Mac OS now has its own Linux containerization framework optimized for Apple Silicon It typically if you want to run a Linux container you'd install Docker Desktop or Podman but now you can bypass all these tools and run containers natively on your Mac Each container runs on its own tiny VM and should achieve better performance than shared VMs like Docker That's pretty cool because several years ago I switched from Mac to Windows for development because of WSL and this feels like a move in the right direction to get me back into the Apple cult In addition the Swift programming language also got some updates like the Java Swift project which allows you to polish a turd by incorporating beautiful Swift code into a Java project and Swift can also safely mix with C and C++ The elephant in the room though is Apple intelligence Last year they made it sound like they were going allin on AI but after it flopped hard they decided to hardly mention it this year Apple does have some new foundation models that seem pretty good but nothing special as long as you trust the Trust Me Bro benchmarks These models will run on device mostly but complex AI can be generated securely in their private cloud which is an oxymoron by the way And at some point they're expected to support Gemini models in addition to Open AI What's funny though is that Apple also just released a paper titled The Illusion of Thinking that talks about how large reasoning models are actually not that special They're basically just pattern matching machines that don't actually think in the way humans think about thinking I've always said that LRM are way overhyped but the timing of this paper is sus because Apple is way behind in the AI race at this point The thing most people are talking about though is liquid glass Some people love it but most seem underwhelmed It's just an incremental change but if we keep going in this direction eventually the entire UI will be invisible And maybe that was the plan all along as Man prepares to merge with machine Only time will tell but if you need some UI inspiration the best place to get it is on mobin.com the sponsor of today's video I've been using Mobin for over 5 years now And what they do is provide highly detailed breakdowns of every screen in popular applications As a developer you can steal or I mean get inspired by these patterns and implement them in your own applications You can analyze entire user journeys UI elements and screens from over a thousand highly successful apps And you can even bring them directly into Figma to kickstart your design process Give mobin.com a try for free right now with the link below This has been the code report Thanks for watching and I will see you in the next
