  In SharePoint Server 2013 Server 2013 2013 development, use client APIs when you can. Client APIs include the client object models, the JavaScript object model, and the REST service. For more information about the APIs in SharePoint 2013 and when to use them, see Choose the right API set in SharePoint 2013.
  Each API includes a manager object that you use to perform core feed-related tasks. Table 1 shows the manager and other key objects (or REST resources) in the APIs and the class library (or endpoint URI) where you can find them..
  Table 2 shows common programming tasks for working with social feeds and the members that you use to perform them. Members are from the .NET client object model (CSOM), JavaScript object model (JSOM), REST service, and server object model (SSOM).
  SharePoint Server 2013 does not provide an API to customize the layout or rendering of microblog posts directly. SharePoint Server 2013 only provides the data and allows cross-platform and cross-device client applications to define layouts that are appropriate for their form factors and needs. In SharePoint 2013 development, you can use JavaScript overrides in client-side rendering, as described in How to: Customize a list view in apps for SharePoint using client-side rendering..
