Hi, I'm thinking of using Network Framework's peer-to-peer capabilities for this years WWDC 2021 Swift Student Challenge. In the requirements, they say that "your Swift playground should not rely on a network connection". Peer-to-peer doesn't require an actual network connection, but just for the Wi-Fi to be turned on (similar to if I were using MultipeerConnectivity).

Does needing Wi-Fi to be toggled on constitute requiring a network connection, even though I don't need a connection per se?

They also mention that your playground will be judged offline, meaning that WiFi will not be enabled.

As a reminder, here‘s what they say:

„Submissions will be judged offline. Your Swift playground should not rely on a network connection and any resources used in your Swift playground should be included locally in your ZIP file.“

Sorry to disappoint you.
