Hints for Next Step
We will wrap up the tutorial by presenting some hints for next step.
What's next?
After completing this tutorial, we advise you to read the following pages to understand Kii Cloud further.
Check programming guides
The section Programming Guides explains various features the Kii Cloud provides, together with the detailed explanation and sample codes. The content should help you to design your apps properly.
Start a new project
When you implement an original application, probably you will not start with modifying Hello Kii but with creating a new project and integrating Kii Cloud SDK into your project. JavaScript Quick Start shows you how to integrate the SDK into your project.
Select frameworks
It is recommended to select frameworks to use after you understand how to use the Kii Cloud APIs with Hello Kii.
Hello Kii uses DOM to avoid depending on particular frameworks. Do not use Hello Kii as a basis for development of full-scale Web apps.
Hints for developing applications
Kii Cloud also provides the following features.
Accessing data in the user scope without login
The pseudo user feature will allow you to handle users without explicit login. This feature allows the end-user to use Kii Cloud without explicit user registration.
The feature will create a user without any username and password and allow your application to retrieve and store the access token that represents the login state. The pseudo user cannot log in again.
See Pseudo Users for more information about this feature.
Handling images
You can store binary data like images by binding them to objects. We call them as Object Body in Kii Cloud.
See Accessing an Object Body for more details.
Sharing data
To share data among users, you can create a group and use the group-scope bucket. Alternatively, you can use an application-scope bucket that is accessible to all application users.
See Scopes and Access Privileges for the scope overview. See Securing Data for the access control. Additionally, refer to an implementation sample using groups in Designing with the Group Feature.
