New entry for WebtreesAnd API, a webtrees 2.2 custom module that gives the native Android app webtreesAnd a JSON interface for reading and writing.

The idea in one sentence: the person who maintains the tree meticulously at the PC keeps working as before, and the family gets the tree on phone and tablet – to look, and to send photos and corrections back, which arrive as pending changes in the same webtrees installation.

  • Source and releases: https://github.com/thobgg/webtreesand-api (GPL-3.0, release ZIP as asset, latest-version.txt for the update notice); current release 1.1.0
  • Every request runs with the rights of the signed-in webtrees user; privacy, editor rights, change log and moderation are those of webtrees itself
  • The interface is open and documented; a manager can list a second app that follows it (for iOS, say) next to webtreesAnd
  • Placed after "Webtrees User Page Title", nothing else in the file changed

Happy to shorten the text if it runs long for the list.

This is a very long description. If somebody wants a full list of features, they can visit your project's website.

Can you rewrite it in just one or two sentences.

Sorry, you're right! I rewrote it - I hope it's ok now.
By the way: is it OK with you that the app is called webtreesAnd? If you'd prefer a name without "webtrees", I'll rename it. Thanks, Thomas
