Workshops · Wed 20 Jan 2027

Get hands-on before the talks

Wednesday is our hands-on day, before the talks begin: real code, on your own Mac, with trainers who know these frameworks inside out. The workshop day is included in every pass with “Workshop” in its name, and in the Individual Sponsor Pass.

Half-day workshop

Foundation Models

Bring Apple Intelligence into your own apps

Every team is being asked where AI fits in their app. The Foundation Models framework gives you direct access to the on-device model behind Apple Intelligence, straight from Swift. It runs on the device, so your users’ data stays private, it works offline, and there’s no server to run or per-request bill to pay. That makes features like summaries, smart suggestions, tagging and natural-language search practical to build into the apps you already ship.

What you’ll do

  • Experiment with the model in #Playground, right inside Xcode
  • Write prompts and instructions, and tune the output with generation options
  • Stream responses as they’re generated, so your app feels fast
  • Use @Generable to get well-formed Swift types back instead of raw text
  • Build tools that let the model pull in data from across the Apple ecosystem, like maps and weather

What to bring

A Mac with the latest macOS and Xcode, an iPhone on the latest iOS if you’d like to test on device, and an idea or two you want to try.

Daniel will confirm the final outline closer to the day.

Why only S$60?

We’ve been going to a lot of community meetups and conferences in our neighbouring countries. Almost everywhere we went, someone would come up to us and say they’d love to come to iOS Conf SG, but they couldn’t justify the ticket on top of travelling to Singapore.

We’ve been running this community since 2011, starting with the iOS Dev Scout meetups, and it has always been about bringing people together. Pricing people out never sat right with us.

So for 2027 we’ve brought the ticket down to S$60. Our sponsors and donors pay for the event, and your S$60 covers your food. For our previous 11 editions, tickets were S$200–300.

If cost is what kept you away before, this is us saying please come. We’d really love to meet you in Singapore.

No early-bird or group discounts

We’ve already cut the price right down, so there are no early-bird or group discounts this year.
