Stack Oververflow API Review

StackApps is an API for the family of Q&A websites using the Stack Exchange engine including Stack Overflow, Server Fault and Super User.

StackApps provides a RESTFul API using a basic application key authentication. The API provides access to Stack Apps user data as well as questions, answers and comments.

No code samples or language packs are provided, they provide a link to the World’s Worst Stack Overflow Clone which is a sample application written in C# and a hello world URL example.
