Hybrid Mobile App using Icenium - servicestack

We are working on a Hybrid Mobile app using Icenium.
How do I start using SeriviceStack to develop backend services? Any direction is highly appreciated.
Thank you

Here from ServiceStack Wiki
Create your first webservice
For self hosting
Here all the ServiceStack Wiki
and the knowledge base in StackOverflow under the tag ServiceStack
and the Google Groups
there is also a training course (with payment) from
PluralSight- An MVC4, iOS And Android App With ServiceStack, Xamarin and C#
I don't know if it is useful.
this is not real answer, only to point you the wiki.
Others can edit to make it better.

Android studio library

My team and I just developed a web base system. Next, we are planning to build an android mobile app version of the system. But none of us have experience of creating a mobile app. I did some reading from google, I saw many posting about kotlin, volley, retrofit etc.
One thing I still don't understand, can someone tell me how kotlin, groovy are different with retrofit and volley?
Is it just like web base development where one is for front end development and another one is for backend?
My app would need to constantly fetch and submit data to phpmyadmin (which I put in my VPS hosting).
Can someone give me a suggestion which library is the best for me to use to create my mobile app?
Thank you in advance!

Can the spotify (windows) desktop client be extended?

I found no clues in the developer documentation, but equalify claims that it integrates into the desktop application. They don't offer a free version so I couldn't try it out.
Is it possible/supported to create extensions for the desktop client and is there some hidden documentation available?
I'd be interested in developing one, but so far I had no luck in finding any documentation.
It used to be possible using the Spotify Apps API. I think you can still manually sideload apps, but there is no App Store or similar. Moreover, support for old Spotify Apps is about to be dropped completely in the future.
So no, there's no way to extend Spotify as far as I know.

OAuth2 and C# Web Forms

I am trying to get some Calendar Information from Office 365 into a web app. Are there any examples on how to do this using c# web forms? I came across some examples but they were written in MVC. I am not 100% familiar with that language structure yet.
The following blog samples are using an ASP.Net web application as a base sample for exploring the Office 365 Exchange REST interface.
Hopefully might point you in the right direction.
(Just starting on this journey myself at the moment!)

(Edit: Apologies this does use the MVC structure inside a Web app.
However there are "basic MVC tutorials" via Bing on YouTube (18mins), W3schools and ASP.Net so you can understand the 3 pieces).

ServiceStack to expose service to multiple clients?

Recently I made the decision to move from Xamarin.Android to native Android development. In the previous Xamarin project I used their walkthrough to call a WCF service from Android with basicHttpBinding, primary purpose in this case to upload a DTO with an image byte array. I'm now trying to figure the best way to do the same (or better) from Android without Xamarin.
Can ServiceStack help me expose a WCF or ASMX service such that most any client (in my case WPF/Silverlight, iOS, Android) can connect to it with the most appropriate message format (SOAP, REST, etc)? If so please point to the best sample for quick adaptation of an existing WCF service hosted in IIS. I'm hoping to get implement quickly for a demo in one week, then circle back and spend more time learning it.
Sincere thanks

Is there a yet fairly complete example projects servicestack that uses the new API?

I got the week off from work to learn servicestack and I am in awe of its simplicity, power, and speed.
I am a pluralsight subscriber and I am going through the Jon Somnez course which is great and as far as I can tell is using the new service stack api.
However, the examples in the pluralsight course are extremely simple and as such I am looking for a working example THAT USES the new API. I see that the wiki is up to date and that is very helpful...but I was hoping to find a working implementation that uses the new API and it seems that all of the examples I have downloaded or browsed are using the old API.
IS there a new working example/implementation (vs solution and projects.) that uses the new API yet?
If I can sneak in another question. Is there a recommendation (hopefully in the example project you can point me to) that explains a best practice for structuring your servicestack API project. (DTOs in a folder, services in a folder, response objects in a folder ??)
Thanks.
Update: ServiceStack Live Demo's and Examples are now being published on LiveDemos GitHub Project.
Most of the examples in ServiceStack.Examples has switched over to use the New API and are mostly available to demo on the servicestack.net homepage.
ServiceStack.UseCases contain a number of small single-purposed applications that are focused on how to enable specific features for different use-cases.
The SocialBootstrap API deployed at bootstrapapi.apphb.com is an example of an MVC and ServiceStack website together making with all the available authentication options together.
The Razor Rockstars is an example of a stand-alone ServiceStack application that demonstrates its website and HTML capabilities showing how you can add razor and markdown views to existing services to create a website that enhances existing services. There are 3 versions of Razor Rockstars available:
An ASP.NET Host
A Stand-alone Self-hosted using HttpListener
A Windows Service
Another website that's similar in spirit to Razor Rockstars is the Nortwind Database editor which demonstrates how you can enable a full-featured server-side HTML website to enhance your existing services. It includes a full-writeup of how he developed it and its capabilities on the accompanying blog post.
