It's AppEngine-centric, but you can think of AppEngine as your server-side wherever it's hosted. 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. here is already a blog entry that explains how to replace w/ JAX-RS > And you can generate client libs in java, ObjectiveC, javascript ... > does one of the videos show the actual ObjC code generation ? -Matthias > A very nice demo of this (starts playing where the interesting part begins): > http://youtu.be/NU_wNR_UUn4?t=9m24s > > Note at 19:36 into the video (http://youtu.be/NU_wNR_UUn4?t=19m36s) a mentioned JSON description of deployed REST service, and API Explorer. > > API Explorer is really cool stuff - you can explore your REST service from your browser, and interact with it.
