9 manage your data

Handling input

Input this, input that...that’s
all I ever hear...input, input,
input, input...all day long. It’s
enough to drive me mad!

The Web and your phone are not just great ways to display data.
They are also great tools to for accepting input from your users. Of course, once your
webapp accepts data, it needs to put it somewhere, and the choices you make when
deciding what and where this “somewhere” is are often the difference between a webapp
that’s easy to grow and extend and one that isn’t. In this chapter, you’ll extend your webapp
to accept data from the Web (via a browser or from an Android phone), as well as look at
and enhance your back-end data-management services.
