Description

Hi, Team.

Foundry Local, which has entered General Availability (GA), supports a REST API.
Is this not available for the Android version?

Reason for the request:
There are various approaches to Android development, and it is not limited to Java or Kotlin. I believe that a REST API would expand the range of integration options when actually embedding Foundry Local into an app, significantly enhancing the product’s value.

I am currently exploring ways to utilize Foundry Local on devices such as AI Glass(ex: Even G2,GUIDE01). Some of these new devices allow for the implementation of plugins using Node.js or Python on companion smartphone apps. With a REST API, it might be possible to call Foundry Local. We would very much like to try this out.

Regards,
Takahiro
