The Apple WWDC Event 22 is coming to a close. While we are still reeling regarding the newest launches, the highlights for day 5 are necessary. Day 5 revolved around the integration of the new features introduced by Apple. By building inclusive applications and having the accessibility to toolkits, developers can streamline the process of app development.

Let’s take a look at the final day releases on day 5 of the Apple WWDC event.

Apple WWDC Event 2022 Day 5 Summary

The announcements for Apple developer conference day 5 are all about creating an experience through app and camera extensions, Xcode cloud for teams, and designing interfaces across various applications. This developer conference has been informative, insightful, and full of surprises that will keep improving the application development process.

Let’s dive into the sessions from day 5 of the Apple WWDC Event 22.

Metal accelerating Machine Learning

As we delve deeper into Metal for accelerating PyTorch model training on the macOS infrastructure. There are various updates enlisted to the TensorFlow training support, allowing developers to explore all the latest features and operations on MPS Graph. The framework of Metal gives applications direct access to the graphic processing unit or GPU of a device. By integrating Metal, the application can leverage the GPU for rendering complicated scenes rapidly and parallelly running the computational tasks. Applications in certain categories can benefit from the maximized performance by using Metal. These include:

Games that render a 3D sophisticated environment.

Video processing applications similar to Final Cut Pro

Apps related to scientific research for analyzing and processing a large number of datasets.

Metal also works collaboratively with other frameworks that can supplement Metal’s capabilities. MetalFX helps upscale renderings in a shorter period than native rendering, and MetalKit helps simplify the tasks that display the Metal content on screen. With the metal Performance Shader framework, developers can access a large library consistent with optimized computing and rendering shaders taking advantage of the unique hardware of GPUs. Various high-level Apple frameworks benefit from the performance of Metal, including SceneKit, RealityKit, Core Image, and SpriteKit. These frameworks assist in integrating GPU programming details.
