Instant Playdates, one of the Top 10 in our Sencha Touch App Contest, is now available on the Apple App Store and Android. Congratulations to Mike Padilla!

Instant Playdates is the perfect app for busy parents who want to schedule playdates for their children. Between school, nap times, and unexpected conflicts, coordinating calendars with others can be almost impossible. Import your Facebook friends and let them know your availability and location instantly. Within minutes, your friends can meetup and presto, Instant Playdate.

Instant Playdates works on phones as well as tablets from Apple and Android. Download the app for free today.

We’d like to extend a warm welcome to one of our newest additions to the Sencha Touch team, Jacky Nguyen. He is the creator of MooTouch (now part of Sencha Labs) and joins us from Singapore.

Jacky is already an outstanding contributor to Sencha Touch, and has put in countless hours squashing bugs as we prepare for 1.0 launch.

Andrew Neil has created a two-part series describing how to use XTemplates, a powerful templating system in Ext JS and Sencha Touch that allows developers to easily format views around dynamic data. Part 1 above, watch Part 2 here.

Andrew’s screencasts are focused and clean. We couldn’t be happier to be collaborating with him. These tutorial videos are part of an ongoing effort at Sencha to create better documentation and resources for our community. Enjoy!

Very pleased to see Joseph Schmitt and Brad Dougherty’s incredible implementation of Sencha Touch to build the Vimeo Awards Festival app. Joseph modified our default theme to match the Vimeo brand, and used LocalStorage to let users save their own favorite sessions.

Though the awards festival is now over, you can still check out the finalist videos in each category. Check it out on your mobile device!

(Also, Sencha Touch 0.98 was just released today. Go get it and start building!)
