Hey, I am looking to participate in the upcoming SSC 2026. I am confused whether I am allowed to submit an idea which is for watchOS. I know the fact that submission would be xcode project and playground correct me if I am wrong but as far as I know, we can develop prototypes for watch on playground. If anyone of you knows about this, please let me know!

👋 Hello
According to the regulations, you can only create the swift playground project, not the Xcode project. ( But you can still use Xcode to create a swift playground project). And the iPadOS program of the swift playground project must be submitted to the competition requirements, and the swift playground project does not support watchOS. So I think you need to create a swift playground project and develop an iPadOS app and submit it to SSC.
You can see the detailed rule information here: https://developer.apple.com/swift-student-challenge/eligibility/
I hope this will be helpful to you.
