This is exactly right. We still have 5 years worth of business logic in Rails, so we just expose a RESTful API as part of the Rails app. The same API is consumed by our iOS, Android, Mobile Web, and Desktop clients.

Cool stuff, very interesting concept, would love to see an example working with a Rails RESTful API.

The app template is such an example, consuming the public GitHub API: https://github.com/airbnb/rendr-app-template

In the future, we'd like to come up with some more in-depth tutorials.

Great thanks I'll take a look at it again, I seen the "Interacting with a RESTful API" section in the wiki left blank and assumed it was in the pipeline.
