The idea is that you create your endpoint - a REST service, annotate it with some annotations and then use tooling to generate client library for your REST service.

>> API Explorer is really cool stuff - you can explore your REST service from your browser, and interact with it. And JSON based metadata about the service allows direct usage in javascript libraries in the browser.

>> At 22:41 into the movie (http://youtu.be/NU_wNR_UUn4?t=22m41s) there is a demo of Google Plugin for Eclipse used to generate client side API from a web service.

>> There is another interesting video on the topic:

>> It starts a bit slowly but it's necessary to explain what a demo app does, and then gets more interesting about 35:40 into the video (http://youtu.be/dylFNrvZ_3U?t=35m40s).
