Engadget : The Windows Store isn't exactly known for being a robust app marketplace, and Microsoft knows it. The company is always looking for new ways to attract developers to the platform. In the past, Microsoft made tools designed to port iOS and Android apps to Windows, and created the Universal app system that puts all Windows apps on the same platform. Now, Microsoft has updated its App Studio to allow users to create, prototype and submit an app for release from the comfort of a web browser -- without installing Visual Studio or writing a single line of code. It works, too: I just created a functional Windows 10 app in less than ten minutes.
Windows App Studio's no-code tools probably can't help you create a visually stunning or unique experience, but it can definitely churn out a functional application in fairly short order. New projects have a choice of a few basic templates, but most of them either amount to simply displaying a webpage within an app (boring) to an experience comprised of various à la carte sections -- mostly RSS feeds, or API curations from services like YouTube, Flickr, Bing, Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You can also create your own sections by inserting some HTML, but that kind of ruins the no-code point of entry.
