TouchDevelop is a new a software development environment that runs on the Windows Phone itself, no separate PC required. From the ground up, TouchDevelop has been designed for touchscreen devices, targeting non-professional developers. TouchDevelop comes with a typed, structured programming language that allows rich auto-completion, a code editor customized for touchscreen and big fingers, an execution engine that deals seamlessly with tombstoning, and an easy-to-use built-in API to access web services and rich sensor data available on the Windows Phone. Scripts can take pictures, explore your media library, map your location, access external web services, use a built-in physics engine to implement a game, or simply tell you the current time in a random language. You can publish scripts on the script bazaar to share them with other people. Visit www.touchdevelop.com to see all the scripts that other people have published already. Using TouchDevelop on your own Windows Phone, we will guide you while you write your first script. We will discuss how developing scripts with TouchDevelop relates to advanced app development with Visual Studio. TouchDevelop, developed by Microsoft Research, is available for free on the Windows Phone Marketplace.
