What would be the logic behind a Dropbox Syncing Note Taking Application?

Can anyone please suggest some logic behind a an application that syncs notes with one's DropBox Account?

Consider me a newb.

I'm thinking it should somewhere be around these lines:

  1. The app takes notes.
  2. The user has to input in his dropbox credentials.
  3. Everytime a new note is created, it MUST be synced to his dropbox account.

What would be the various APIs that are to be implemented?

You will need to start thinking about using Dropbox web service APIs to upload the notes to Dropbox.

Some resources to start with:

Following steps above should get your started in the right direction... One suggestion on cloud storage based design... It's best to also have some kind of local storage on the mobile device to act as an offline buffer, just in case user writes a note when they have no internet access. Write the cloud upload/sync code to run in the background.

Have fun!
