These students were tasked with creating an interactive scene in a Swift playground, which could be experienced within three minutes. Winners of this challenge now own a jacket that imitates a plaid design created with emoji, as well as pins of various emoji and Apple iconography.

In previous years, the winners would also have received free admission and accommodations for WWDC in San Jose. Because the event is being held virtually this year, these winners will also gain access to one-on-one developer labs with Apple engineers next week.

Apologies to the older crowd here, but I showed that jacket to my very stylish 14 year-old daughter and she freaked out about how awesome it is and she badly wants one. Remember that this contest was for students, who tend to skew in the teens-early 20's age group.
