Star iPhone Gets .Net App Development
Linked by snydeq on Mon 14th Sep 2009 21:43 UTC
Apple Novell has announced MonoTouch 1.0, a commercial SDK kit that allows developers to build iPhone apps using Microsoft's .Net Framework instead of the Apple-designated C or Objective-C languages. The SDK leverages Novell's Mono runtime for running Windows apps on non-Windows systems, allowing developers to utilize code and libraries written for .Net and programming languages like C#.

Nope there is a limitation on that, no code generation or Dynamic typing, so Scripting language is a no go.

It's weird, they don't do dynamic languages, but Unity 3D can be scripted with Javascript (uses the same Mono backend).
