We build web apps for public health research and typically use Django to 
create the web application. We sometimes create native iOS apps for a study 
and I am wondering about using Mezzanine as a backend to support a blog 
type feature in a native app. I would like the bloggers to be able to use a 
Mezzanine-based web site to post articles and moderate comments and allow 
users to view the blog posts and post comments using the native app. I 
assume I would create some kind of RESTful API that the iOS app will use to 
communicate with the django/mezzanine app. In this project we will also be 
developing an Android version so both native apps will communicate with the 
same backend.

Does this seem like crazy talk or is it reasonable? I assume I can use the 
data model supplied by mezzanine but I wasn't sure how tied the system was 
to using the forms provided by mezzanine. I'm sure I could host the content 
and forms in web views, and that will be my fallback, but a more native 
look and feel (with native controls) is preferred.

Thanks in advance for any advice or wisdom on this topic.
