WWDC redacted schedule statistics
# The following WWDC information is based on the initial redacted WWDC
# schedule posted each year. Session counts generally change a bit
# each year as the conference draws closer, but these numbers are
# close enough for a rough estimate.
#
# While session names and descriptions are redacted, the underlying
# data still includes information about which platforms they target.
# This allows us to do a bit of comparative analysis. These numbers
# are for "sessions" only -- Keynote, "Get Togethers", Labs, etc. have
# been excluded.
#
# You can see the raw data yourself by loading developer.apple.com/wwdc/schedule
# and pulling the 'sessions.json' file out with your browser's dev tools.
