The Neo4j team has released a REST wrapper that can be installed on multiple operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, as a standalone server. This new tool makes it easier for developers to interact with the Neo4j graph database from various programming languages such as PHP, .NET, and Perl, by providing a simpler interface for API access. The availability of this REST wrapper is expected to simplify interactions with the Neo4j graph database, allowing developers to leverage its capabilities more efficiently.
