Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman indicates no major hardware announcements are expected. The “Sleek Peek” tagline replaces Apple’s “on the horizon” teaser, which was revealed earlier this year. The Platforms State of the Union will detail developer tools following the keynote. The redesign aims to unify Apple’s ecosystem aesthetics across devices. The conference remains exclusively online and free, with Apple promising a “week of technology and creativity” as it prepares its most significant interface overhaul since iOS 7.
