The way in which we interact with computing devices is changing: instead of keyboards, advanced touchscreens become more common; mobile devices are often equipped with more sensors, such as location information and acceleration, and are always connected to the cloud.
Touch Develop is a new programming environment and language from Microsoft built around this new reality. Its typed, structured programming language is built around the idea of only using a touchscreen as the input device to author code. It has built-in primitives which make it easy to access the rich sensor data available on a mobile device.
From Drag and Drop blocks to curly braces, the editor adapts to users skills and allows you to grow at your own pace. Touch Develop features 3 skill levels: beginner, coder, and expert, that provide a seamless transition for learners.
