obtain compatibility specifications for the current version of the application and the updated module versions stored in the code database;

analyze the compatibility specifications for the current version of the application and the updated module versions;

determine that the updated version of the application can be generated using the updated module versions stored in the code database, based on analyzing the compatibility specifications for the current version of the application and the updated module versions and based on updates available within the updated module versions for the application; and

generate the updated version of the application using the updated module versions stored in the code database, the generation of the updated version causes transfer of a user from the current version of the application to the updated version of the application and dynamically establishes access for the user to the updated version, wherein the transfer of the user is performed in real-time while the user is utilizing the application, wherein dynamically establishing access includes loading a state associated with the user for the current version of the application prior to the transfer, into the updated version of the application.

10. The system of claim 9 , the instructions further comprising instructions to:

obtain an updated module version for one of the modules in the module dependency graph of the current version of the application; and

generate the updated version of the application using the obtained updated module version.

11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the instructions to identify the current module version numbers for the one or more modules in the module dependency graph for the current version of the application include instructions to:

obtain the current version of the application;

parse the obtained current version of the application; and

determine the module dependency graph of the current version of the application based on parsing the current version of the application.

12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the application is a multi-user social networking application.

13. The system of claim 9 , wherein the compatibility specifications include information on at least one of: hardware requirements; operating system requirements; and web browser requirements.

14. The system of claim 10 , the instructions further comprising instructions to:

provide a notification for a user of the generated updated version of the application;

obtain an indication to provide the updated version of the application for the user; and

provide the updated version of the application for the user.

15. The system of claim 14 , the instructions further comprising instructions to:

obtain an indication that the updated version of the application replaced the current version of the application on a user device as the user was using the application on the user device.

16. A processor-readable medium tangibly storing processor-executable application updating instructions, the instructions comprising instructions to:
