gaesynkit 1.0.0a2

Google App Engine Datastore/Local Storage Synchronization Framework

The gaesynkit framework enables Google App Engine application developers to create entities in the client’s Web Storage and synchronize them with the server-side Datastore at a later point of time. So, offline editing becomes easier and more secure through a higher level API.
