https://cocoaconferences.com

List of conferences for developers interested on Apple related ecosystems (iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, UIKit, Swift, SwiftUI, ReactNative, Flutter...).

Adding a new conference

The site is generated from this file; add new conferences there in YAML format.

When editing an existing conference, there is no need to manually remove the corresponding date fields for past conferences; those are updated automatically. Your entry should look like this:

- name: The name of the conference
  link: The URL for the conference website
  location: Text briefly describing where the conference will be held
  start: The day the conference starts (in "year-month-day" format)
  end: The day the conference ends (in "year-month-day" format)
  cocoa-only: true or false
  cfp:
      link: The url at which prospective speakers my respond to the Call For Papers
      deadline: the last day on which a talk proposal may be submitted (in "year-month-day" format)

⚠️ The indentation is really important on .yml files, keep the same number of spaces as the rest of entries or it won't parse the file correctly.

Examples

The following example provides all of the necessary information. It describes a conference occurring from March 4 to March 6, 2019. It is applicable to Cocoa developers, and includes information about how to respond to the call for papers.

- name: Example Conf 2019
  link: https://2019.example.com/conference
  location: 🏴 Anytown, Atlantis
  start: 2019-03-04
  end: 2019-03-06
  cocoa-only: true
  cfp:
      link: https://2019.example.com/conference/cfp
      deadline: 2019-01-31

This example provides some of the information, but omits the call for papers information. Perhaps it is not known, or perhaps the conference is not accepting submissions.

The cfp section of an item may be left incomplete, or may be omitted entirely.

- name: Example Conf 2020
  link: https://2020.example.com/conference
  location: 🏴 Anytown, Atlantis
  start: 2020-03-04
  end: 2020-03-06
  cocoa-only: false

cocoaconferences's Issues

Remove iOS Conf Budapest?

Since the organisers announced that event was cancelled (https://twitter.com/iosconfbudapest/status/1100673454922186752), should it be removed from the listing?

Create a more readable web page using gh-pages

Have a look at my fork and branch https://github.com/Abizern/CocoaConferences/tree/gh-pages

(No pull request as you don't have a gh-pages branch)

Simply by using the automatic page generator and picking the first theme, and using the readme.markdown file you can see a nice web page at http://abizern.org/CocoaConferences/

If you do the same thing in your repo you can have the same page at https://Lascorbe.github.io/CocoaConferences/ and choose whatever theme you like. Since you've moved to tables, this looks quite nice.

RSS feed of conferences

Would it be an idea to generate a list of conferences for RSS?

It should relatively another rendering of the current yaml file.

I'd say everytime the site gets updated, the rss is generated as well only containing upcoming conference.

I am not familiar enough with Jekyll to quickly hash out an rss page myself.

Is gh-pages broken?

Try! Swift Tokyo 2020 conference has been cancelled.

see link. https://tryswifttokyo.hatenablog.com/entry/2020/02/13/145412

Add a calendar?

It would be great to offer Calendar options allowing people to import the conference dates to their agenda.

That would make it easier to visualize when events are and take it into account when planning other things.

Thoughts?

Individual conference ICS files

Based on a comment by @AliSoftware on #219:

Side note / PS: would be nice to use that same ics template to also generate one ics per event and add a link to download it next to each conference in the list, to be able to easily just add the conference(s) one would be interested in instead of all at once

This is possible, but I think it would request a custom plugin for Jekyll, since it's the dynamic creation of files, and not just the dynamic creation of file content.

Sorting issues

The upcoming Cocoa-only conferences are sorted in the wrong order. I think they should be sorted with the upcoming one first, and the furthers away in the future down.

Almost the same issue is valid for sorting the mobile conferences, where the order is again reversed, except for MobileEra (the last one), which seems to break the order completely

The past Cocoa-only conferences seem to be in the right order, as far as I can see.

But the past mobile development conferences also have a small problem with the order, starting with 3 conferences from 2018, then all the other ones in ascending order.
