To add some context to the title, this isn't a traditional IDE in the browser.
It's a kind of experimental touch-centric IDE with it's own semi-visual programming language (your not exactly dragging boxes around, but your not editing text either).
I only played with it for 2 minutes, but it's apparent that this is a "research" project. It's not meant as a replacement SDK for whatever is the de facto standard for Win8 apps.
- KeyBoardG 14y agoYep, this started as an app on WP7 from MSR. You could download and share various scripts/apps. The app was a little clunky but neat.
- brudgers 14y agoThe first version was called "TouchStudio."
- EwanG 14y agoDeFacto Standard is Visual Studio Express (free with basic info). Allows you to develop in any of the Windows 8 UI supported languages, including Javascript. About halfway done with my first game (a visual novel), and I could see where down the line being able to pick up my work wherever I am and whenever I have a few minutes could be very useful. Would love to setup an IDE pointing to Dropbox for assets etc. Of course I am hopeful that the Surface Pro will make this a little more possible as well.
