Build your first app using a completely online tool that isn’t touchdevelop

Yep, I have been keen on touchdevelop.com for quite sometime, now you can build some other kinds of template apps using:

https://apps.windowsstore.com (that is windows store, so there are two ‘s’ in a row there).

You will need to sign-up and use your Dreamspark account to get started.  This is a great way to build your resume!  Phone Apps with creative material.  It’s fun.

You could add advertisement from Microsoft or other ad vendors to make money (not sure how that works, more later).

These are good looking apps by the way.

This is exciting!  Give it a try.
