SAFE Network API Documentation

Speaking as one with rather limited code experience I’m finding this documentation to be rather confusing. So some small example applications or code snippets to go with the json to show how the examples would fit into an app would be good as well as annotations to explain in English what it all meant.

You want some SAFE API tutorials! I vote for this It is a tricky thing though because obviously MaidSafe don’t have the time yet, and the API is still in flux - and even to those who do have technical nous, not well understood.

So I don’t think we’ll see much of this until someone with the time and ability learns to use the API and starts writing a coding tutorial as they go. It is needed, and something I’d like to do if I had the time, but the API is still not stable or clear enough to set things out like this IMO. It is getting there though, and providing a decoupled JSON API is a big step towards this because it reduces the likelihood for API changes considerably, even when something underneath changes.

I’m sure MaidSafe will also have plans to do this if others don’t, but obviously they are busy making it work for now.
