Resources for Getting Started with Twilio

Twilio makes it simple to add phone calls, text messages, and browser based calling (turn any computer into a phone, or even build your own Skype-like experience!) with REST APIs.  Get started with these tools:

• REST APIs for making phone calls and sending text messages
• TwiML (Twilio Markup Language) for handing incoming calls and texts
• Twilio Client SDK for making calls from browser to browser, browser to phone, or phone to browser with just a few lines of Javascript
• Other helpful tools: Quickstarts, Helper Libraries, Application How Tos
