Initially I was surprised Swift, a new language, came before JavaScript. But after thinking about it you have to have it for iOS integration.

It's too bad their JavaScript SDK isn't ready yet but making HTTP calls from JavaScript is dead simple so that's not the worst thing.

Overall looks like a good set of priorities for what SDKs got done first.

Well, if JavaScript were meant to be used as an actual programming language, then it would make sense to develop an SDK for it.

I'm only half joking there :)

In all seriousness, though, it did make my brain tilt about 15 degrees to see the words "JavaScript" and "SDK" next to each other like that.

AWS has two JavaScript SDKs.

https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-browser/

https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-node-js/

And Dropbox has one for API v1: https://github.com/dropbox/dropbox-js. There will be one for v2 as well.
