Apple posted a beta of their upcoming Dashcode development software for widgets earlier this month. A recent Apple Developer Connection News mailing started publicizing it.
Dashcode is a new application for developing Dashboard widgets coming in Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard). Dashcode is everything you need to create great Dashboard widgets.
The final version will be shipping with Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) but the currently released beta appears to run fine under Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger).
Much has been said about Apple's reluctance to allow 3rd party developers from freely releasing iPhone applications. One interesting possibility raised by Jason Snell is whether or not Apple will freely allow developers to deploy Widgets to the iPhone. A Widget essentially is a small web-based application (HTML, CSS, Javascript) and would be less likely to introduce any platform instability -- one of Steve Jobs concerns.
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman today further outlined what to expect from the Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 set to be unveiled on September 9.
While it was initially rumored that Touch ID may be coming to the Apple Watch this year, Gurman reiterated that he does not expect the Series 12 or Ultra 4 to have any major design changes compared to the current Series 11 and Ultra 3 models.
