08:30-16:00: Touch of Genius – Script any Device with TouchDevelop
(Chair: Arjmand Samuel, Microsoft) 

TouchDevelop Web App is a development environment to create apps ON your tablet or smartphone. TouchDevelop has a predictive on-screen code keyboard and a general-purpose touch-optimized programming language. Scripts written by using TouchDevelop can access data, media, and sensors on the phone, tablet, and PC. Scripts can interact with cloud services, including storage, computing, and social networks. TouchDevelop lets you quickly create fun games and useful tools.

In this workshop, you can bring your own device (iPad, iPhone, Android phone or tablet, Windows phone, tablet or laptop) and create scripts to run on your device (we will have Windows Phones to borrow as well). We will have developers of TouchDevelop on hand to introduce you to this new environment. You can work in a group, or alone, and towards the end of the day submit an entry to be judged by a panel of distinguished judges. Winners take away cash prizes – now that is a Touch of Genius.
