Using the REST API with WordPress.org self-hosted sites via Jetpack

As of Jetpack 1.9, the WordPress.com REST API can now access self-hosted WordPress blogs with the Jetpack plugin installed.

Instead of just building for the WordPress.com platform, you can build awesome applications that interact with WordPress in general. Any applications built using the API for WordPress.com will automatically work with Jetpack-enabled sites running Jetpack 1.9 or higher.
