Intel has released the first beta of the software developer kit (SDK) of the Intel Atom Developer Program Software Development Kit (SDK) available for Microsoft Windows and Moblin* operating systems developers.
The Atom SDK covers Atom use in Windows (C and C++) and Intel's own open-source Moblin platform.
The kit helps software companies and individuals design and submit applications for Intel-based netbooks to ultimately sell at stores opening next year.
With the Beta SDK, developers can submit their applications for validation and, once validated, begin to take advantage of the program's revenue-generating opportunities in 2010.
Intel is offering incentives for developers to begin submitting applications by offering a chance to win big prizes including a smart car or vacation package. Frequent submitters will earn reputation points allowing access to a 'Black Belts' group which offers more programming tools and earlier releases of new code.
Developers can download the beta version of the SDK and learn more about the program, application programming interfaces (APIs), validation process, application store framework and developer contests at appdeveloper.intel.com.
