Mobile Python: Rapid Prototyping of Applications on the Mobile Platform

9.5. Summary

In this chapter, we have presented three working applications, MopyMaps!, EventFu and InstaFlickr, which are based on three different web services. These applications delegate most of the difficult work to an external service, which results in remarkably light processing on the client side. For example, consider MopyMaps!, which implements a working global map client in around 100 lines of code! With modern web services and a bit of imagination you can build amazingly functional applications with unbelievably few lines of code.
