## What it is
A Swift script for bulk downloading Apple WWDC session videos, PDF slides, and sample code in one shot, with no external dependencies. It supports multiple video resolutions (1080p/720p/SD) and uses ffmpeg for 1080p stream conversion.

## Use cases
- bulk download all WWDC session videos before leaving the conference
- download WWDC session PDFs and sample code in one shot
- grab 720p HD videos of WWDC sessions to watch offline
- download specific WWDC sessions by session number
- convert downloaded 1080p stream files to videos with ffmpeg
- download WWDC tech talks videos

## When to choose
- you want a dependency-free script to grab all WWDC session resources at once
- you're on a fast connection (like the conference network) and want everything before heading home
- you prefer a lightweight CLI over a GUI app

## When to avoid
- you want a polished GUI experience - use the WWDC app by insidegui instead
- you need to download directly to an external hard drive (known limitation)
- you need a maintained tool for the latest WWDC years or guaranteed ongoing support
