Today, at the Sprint Developer Conference, Sprint (NYSE: S) announced enhancements to its Sprint Application Developer website with the introduction of the Sprint Services Framework. The Sprint Services Framework provides a single web 2.0 interface for developers to access application programming interfaces (API’s) directly from Sprint that offers developers seamless capabilities across most Sprint devices including mobile handsets and embedded devices, operating systems and development environments including web pages and applications.

Through the Sprint Services Framework, developers can obtain in-depth information on each service capability including:

• Overview information
• Videos that showcase the service capabilities
• Interactive demonstrations that the developer can use in real time
• Customer testimonials highlighting how developers are using Sprint

Services Framework
• Use cases highlighting the use of a combination of the service capabilities in the Sprint Services Framework

Developers also can utilize network services such as location based services (LBS), SMS, MMS, geofence and presence through the Sprint Services Framework. They can experiment with the API’s through the Sprint Developer Sandbox and utilize developer guides, sample code and emulators that are available on the ADP website.
