Windows RT ?

Please MIT, could you make a Windows RT app for Scratch ??
It would be so helpful for our school.

Re: Windows RT ?

Your school only has Windows RT? That was a bad idea for a school network of computers.
Anyways, that would take a LONG time and a LOT of money and it just would not be worth it for there are (unfortunately) not a lot of people who use Windows RT.
I support this, however, because I think it would be really neat to have a Windows Store app for Scratch.
If it were to have an app:

Re: Windows RT ?

Somebody made a post about scratch on RT. It involved putting it on a USB stick or SD card and running Scratch from the card in desktop mode.


Who would win, SOPA or PIPA?

It would not be possible because Windows RT cannot run executable (*.exe) files.

Re: Windows RT ?

I got bored, so here is what I imagine the possibility of a RT Scratch app would look like:
I guess it is missing a lot of the functions, but eh, it doesn't matter.

Tell that to these guys.  tongue
Also, look on the Squeak site for a ARM vm.

Re: Windows RT ?

But you have to get a flashdrive and that is too much work.
