Do you plan to release a Windows version of the Corona SDK ?

I don’t care about the bloody iPhone, I want it for the Android functionality.
I avoid most Apple-products like the plague ( except the iPad ).
So yes, give a Windows binary, and please compile an x64 as well if easily doable.
Also, Mac’s are stupidly overpriced compared to hardware. [import]uid: 19037 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 17112[/import]

Personally I use Mac, Windoze, and Linux. I would like Corona on all three. Linux seems to have great open source support for graphics and code editors so it should be a great platform. When the project is done I could push it over to Mac from one of the other platforms and finalize it there. [import]uid: 7197 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 17152[/import]

I would love a version of Corona for Windows. I just signed up for Corona, only to discover I need a Mac. As others have said, why should you need a Mac to create Android apps?

Also, if I could use Corona on my Windows machine, then when I was done I could finish it on a friend’s Mac if I wanted to post it in the App store. No need to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on a Mac, which I don’t want anyway.

Completely agree with derwydd, if I can’t get a Win binary, at least a Linux version would be awesome. [import]uid: 19037 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 17390[/import]

Let me say this in very simple terms, having a windows version would be fantastic, wonderful, great, super duper, did i say fantastic?

Plus think about it most developers use windows not mac os, so you would open up to many more developers…

hmmm wait that’s more people for us to compete with - forget it don’t add windows… lol [import]uid: 11860 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 17401[/import]

HI, I´d like a windows version not for my android, just for any kind of mobile: android, iphone, rim…even nokia: something real crossplatfrom. Is it possible?? Is it phonegap or flash/air? [import]uid: 23403 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 17620[/import]

You won’t be developing for iPhone without a Mac - the Apple iOS SDK requires it and I doubt that situation will ever change. And that’s fair enough. However Corona allows you to target Android as well, so the fact that the tools are Mac only strikes me as limiting for Ansca Mobile, they could be reaching so many more developers. Doubly so given the lack of decent games on Droid. [import]uid: 10451 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 17623[/import]

Well Alan, that’s not completely true. Both DragonFireSDK and AirplaySDK work fine with Windows and can create iPhone apps. [import]uid: 11180 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 17745[/import]

I will also say a windows or linux version would be awesome. I am becoming more familiar with my mac mini everyday but I could speed things up greatly on windows or linux. I’m just so much more familiar with the short cut keys and closing a window on the right instead of realizing the x is now on the left not to mention the dynamics of the home/end keys.

I love my new mac but I could be more productive on linux or windows especially in the prototyping phase. [import]uid: 22532 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 17824[/import]

I would love to see a Win7 version of this product. I have nothing against Macs at all, but 99% of my work is PC-based. I can’t get funds for Mac hardware unless I buy it myself, and the wife already gives me hell about the PC upgrades :).

If you do decide to jump into Win7 with this, I would be happy to help beta-test as well.

Thanks for your consideration. [import]uid: 27145 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 18454[/import]

WOHOO!
The evil reign of !"#%! Apple on Corona is over :smiley: [import]uid: 19037 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 32512[/import]

I am a student participating in a summer internship developing software at a local consulting firm. We use macs here, but I may not be here forever. I use Kubuntu Linux at home and would love to be able to use Corona for my own projects in the future. [import]uid: 68071 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 40265[/import]

huh? They have windows version since beginning I think… [import]uid: 48521 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 40466[/import]

You have a Linux computer and want a Corona SDK for Windows which already exists? [import]uid: 10389 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 40964[/import]

No, I want a native linux version. [import]uid: 68071 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 41081[/import]

Oh! I didn’t read properly. [import]uid: 10389 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 41411[/import]

No, the Windows version is fairly recent. [import]uid: 10451 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 41438[/import]

Hi everyone,

So, what are the odds that we could have Corona on Linux? My platform of choice is Ubuntu Linux, and it would be great to be able to code Corona apps on it.

Thanks! [import]uid: 52069 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 42049[/import]

This would be cool, to use Corona on Linux. [import]uid: 52069 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 42051[/import]

If you mean the SDK, I have installed and given it a test run on Win 7. [import]uid: 52069 topic_id: 81 reply_id: 43240[/import]
