A relaxed evening for Hong Kong's Apple developer community, indie iOS builders, designers, and anyone shipping (or dreaming up) something on the platform. Three short talks, an open-mic demo time to show what you're building, and a first look at a new AI iPhone camera app you can help test. Work in Google / Android land instead?
