Scholarships

Calebe has been awarded a WWDC scholarship in 2024. Here is the submission that got him there.

In 2024, applicants were tasked with creating an interactive app playground on the topic of their choice to showcase their passion for coding. New for 2024, 50 Distinguished Winners were recognized for their outstanding submissions and invited to Apple in Cupertino. Here’s how Calebe describes his winning submission.

In the blasé routine we wake up just motivated by working with something we love and make our dreams come true. But it’s very common to enter the automatic mode and forget the reason we are doing this. Rest and enjoy the journey are very important values that we should cultivate, not feeling guilty when we practice. This is the theme of Coffriends, a landscape game using the swift framework Sprite Kit that involves the user into Milo’s history and the importance of friendship and quality time.
