How can I write a program in c# on Windows that can read and write to NFC cards?. Open source / commercial are both fine. Thanks

Contact Stollmann: http://www.stollmann.de/en/home and ask for the Windows NFC stack or the windows NFC Dev-Kit.

Disclaimer: I work for stollmann, and I'm one of the engineers who did the NFC on Android, Windows and Linux (and more) platform solution. Yes, I promote my own product here.. Otoh as far as I know it's the only product out there that offers modern NFC-functionality on the Windows platform.

I'm afraid you're going to have to write your own stack. You'll have to send, receive and process reader and tag specific commands. Best to start with the ACR122U NFC reader. It's cheap, has good documentation is is fully NFC compatible.

GoToTags has both a .NET NFC SDK and a Windows NFC App. Windows 8 has built in support for NFC, although it doesn't cover the full stack of what you will likely need for an application.

A related note, if you are looking for a Windows-based SDK there is a big difference between the PC/SC (smart card) based SDKs and the native SDKs. Using PC/SC with NFC is a bit of a hack; it works for the basic tag reading and writing, but since you do not have direct access to the NFC controller and chip you will be unable to do any of the more advanced NFC functions such as P2P. Also the PC/SC stack is useless if you need to do high-speed reading or encoding of NFC tags.

I've been looking for something in Python and came across this:

• https://launchpad.net/nfcpy

Looks relatively easy to get started too, unlike the bit-twiddling code I've seen in other places.

You might want to check out nfctools. Based on the same project, I have created an NFC Eclipse Plugin with an NDEF message editor, if that is your game.

I'm not sure if it is exactly what you are looking for, but have you tried libnfc? http://www.libnfc.org It is in C by the way.
