Hi! I'm Peter Yaacoub. I am a student from Lebanon, attending university and developing iOS apps concurrently since 2017. Since then, I've branched out to writing articles, building this website, and more!
Peter has been awarded a WWDC scholarship four times. Here are the submissions that got him there.
In 2021, applicants were tasked with building an interactive playground to showcase their creativity and technical abilities. Here’s how Peter describes his winning submission.
The Swift Student Challenge is the best time to exit my comfort zone and make something new, bold, and outlandish. I've always believed that great software comes into being only when its creator is proud of it, just like a parent is with his child. As such, this was my chance to make myself proud and to go further than I ever went in the vast land of Swift programming. I stumbled upon an idea that had always intrigued and fascinated me: making a game with SpriteKit.
