Hi guys,

I am thinking of making an app using Processing, but I want the app to be downloadable from an NFC tag. Is this possible? Has anyone done this that can lead me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance,  
Grace

Downloadable … to what device / operating system? Android? Are you already able to program them with urls, like this?
