About this book

It argues that opening up your application can provide significant benefits and involves you in the entire process—from setting up your application, to creating clients for it, to handling success and all its attendant problems.

  • This book is the essential resource for anyone who wants to make their web application a full participant in the new Internet
  • This book is intended for intermediate–to–advanced Rails developers—people who use Rails regularly for sites and applications more complicated than the prototypical roll–your–own blog

  • Application projects include iPhone, Facebook, and REST for the enterprise
