The Android Over The Air API is built on HTTP and JSON, so any standard HTTP client
can send requests to it and parse the responses.
However, the Google API client libraries provide better language
integration, improved security, and support for making calls that require
user authorization. The client libraries are available in a number of
programming languages; by using them you can avoid the need to manually set
up HTTP requests and parse the responses.
To get started, select the programming language that you are using for
development.
