Scholarships

Emrah has been awarded a WWDC scholarship in 2022. Here is the submission that got him there.

In 2022, applicants were tasked with creating a Swift Playgrounds app project on the topic of your choice to showcase their passion for coding. Here’s how Emrah describes his winning submission.

I combined the powerful features of Swift UI with the concept of cyber-security. Today's one of the most important problems is that company employees or people do not choose a strong password. As a result, attackers can crack weak passwords with techniques such as dictionary attacks and brute force attacks. By experiencing how strong a password can be created and how long will it take to be cracked, the user will understand the importance of the password and increase the security level.
