Microsoft has developed an app that lets you develop different kinds of apps directly from your smatphone or tablet. This app designed for the web eliminates the need of using a separate PC for programming needs. Your TouchDevelop script will be able to access data, media and sensors from your tablet or PC and can do everything that you would want your app to do - Like connecting to the cloud or social networks.

So, if you are looking to make a few extra bucks in the upcoming winter holidays, all the app developers here can start creating fun games and useful tools for Windows Phones or Windows 8 OS.
This Web App's programming language as well as the editor have been developed in a way which is just suitable for touch-screen devices. It looks fun and easy. Anyone here wants to give it a try?
You can sign-in using your Windows Live ID, Google or Facebook account.
Tell us your experience with the app.

And check out a demo from Microsoft here -

    I got a few more video from Microsoft Student Partners, that I think will help some of you get started here.
