Not at all! Client libraries for the Tasks API, just like all Google APIs, is available on a number of different platforms. In addition, you can always make the REST calls yourself on any unsupported platform.
This is where you can download jars for any Java client application. You'll find what you need in order to write an Android application, App Engine application, or a generic Java application all bundled inside.
Here is all the documentaion on the Tasks API. Pretty much any questions you have about the API in general should be answered there, as well as a "Getting Started" walkthrough and other helpful guides.
Finally, here is a list of all client library platforms that Google generates for the Tasks API.

@elmetni Certainly! There are a number of samples [here](https://code.google.com/p/google-api-java-client/source/browse?repo=samples) that include a working 2LO OAuth flow for basic, android, or App Engine. There's a calendar sample for each. The [Calendar Cmdline Sample](http://samples.google-api-java-client.googlecode.com/hg/calendar-cmdline-sample/instructions.html) is an easy read through. It's currently for version 1.16.0-rc but you can always change the branch using the first link. – Nick Jul 21 '13 at 19:08
