The simple question is: can we use audio streaming radio URLs (from the radio sites or shoutcast links or similar) to develop a little radio stream commercial application (iPhone or Android) ? Thank you!

First contact the radio station office, by phone or email an obtain a written "OK" from they.
Implementation:
For android is no problem.
For iOS : at the Apple review you have to explain why is this more than a simple URL open, via browser. So you should add some platform feaures to be accepted.
Contacting they is not only for law, but they (should) know about you and maybe they will update they site with 2 link: download from Google Play or AppStore ( those 2 links)
If they know it is 15000 device is listening they, maybe they will upgrade the hardware too, bandwidth too.
I hope it helps.

I hope you are doing well.
I have a project to do at school, it's about developing an API to link three applications from different platforms to a single database. It will be a desktop, mobile and web application. But problem, I've never developed an API and I don't know where to start. I would like you to tell me how to do it (which language to use, which software I need and if you can advise me on specific courses), or at least give me indications on how to search. I heard that we could develop some with Python which is a language that I use often, so if there are indications that can go in this direction as well. Thank you so much.
Based on knowledge about python i recommend to use Flask framework to create your api and you can find a lot of youtube videos can help you
i hope that i was helpful for you good luck

Is there any straight-forward way to make an Android app that streams an online radio station? This radio station will be built by my company, so there exists no API or anything at the moment. Ideally I am looking to make an Android service so that users can listen to the radio while the application is running in the background. Thanks!
The question you asked leads to a broad answer. However here goes some tips for you.
For a streaming radio station you can create a steaming server or buy streaming hosting. There are some free software's available that can be installed in your server and use to produce audio streaming from tracks/audio input.
For free streaming software you can try,

If you want to buy a streaming hosting service with pre-installed software like SHOUTcast try this,

Once you buy or host a radio station, you can connect to that station using a http://ip_address:port_number using Android MediaPlayer.

This is most likely going to get downvoted into oblivion but I seriously cannot find an answer and I don't know where to begin...
I have just finished developing a chess app but its purely offline, ie, you can only play with some one sitting right next to you.
I want to make this app online, as in, I can connect to my wifi, click match me with an opponent. And start a game with some else on my app?
i know Some will downvote this question But

Start with Sockets and Client/Server models.
What you basically need is a way to build a data connection between your players. Lets say I am Player A and I open a chess-server-socket on my phone and want you to join it. Problem here would be, that I as a default user lack a way to tell you my nonstatic IP address to connect to. So I need you as a developer to provide a blackbox that does all this for us.

I have been trying to find the answer to this question on both the Google developer site and here on SO but so far am unable to come up with a satisfactory answer.
I wish to provide users that download my application with a "user guide" on how to set-up certain parts of the application and how to load external data into it. I would like to add some screenshots in a simple step-by-step guide.
Is there a fixed framework available to do this? I could ship the app with a few pages that I load in the device's browser - but on a phone browser - looking at a screenshot of a phone may not be very "readable". Would a URL that one could view from a PC be better? Or perhaps just a textwindow within my application would be best. I was hoping someone here has had an idea that may have worked well for them in the past.
If it were me, I would just host the user guide online and provide a link to it from your app.
It would be easiest to set up and it allows to user to view the guide from their computer or tablet. (This way they can set up your app without having to switch back and forth between your guide and the relevant screen!)

Ive seen some apps where you can open your computers web-browser, type in the local IP address to the android device, and access a homepage that hosts from the device.
An example is this app: Finger Timer - play.google.com
Does anyone know how this is done? Does Google have an API for this, or do you have any examples that I can start with? Im not a professional developer, so I prefer to keep it simple (few technologies).
What I had in mind was something like this:
Create a HTML or PHP page on my device
Feed it with some information from my app somehow
Host that page, so it can be accessed from any web-browser on any device on a local network.
" Paw Server" does that.
Here's some documentation on how to use it.
check out this thread at XDA-Devs which explains the process.

PawServer Homepage
I found this page that is amazingly good. Just what I was looking for. It even has source code, so this is how I can learn faster.
Android Development Blog
It contains, as the blogger says: "a bare minimum web server for android platform".
