Introduction to WebPageMakerAPI's Client -- WebPageMaker

WebPageMakerAPI is a simple API used for persisting and sharing HTML documents by the WebPageMaker Gallery. Building on what's been started with LoveBomb and StoryThing, the Web Page Maker app is designed to let people:

• Go to make.mozilla.org and make a web page fast.
• Share what you make in a low friction way (ie. don't need your own hosting).
• Make something nice based on one of our beautiful remixable templates.
• Learn web literacy skills by making things following our step-by-step guided learning experiences (which are themselves hackable webpages).
• Easily make a new guided learning experience.
