Method and system of running an application
A method for transmitting an application is disclosed. The method includes, for example, receiving, from a client, an input for initiating the application; generating an application bundle associated with the application, the application bundle including an address of a server, the address capable of enabling a program on the client to request, from the server, information needed for running the application; and transmitting the application bundle to the client.
1. A method of operating a device, the method including:
downloading reduced temporary logic for a portion of an application on the device;
running the reduced temporary logic for the portion of the application on the device while at least the portion of the application is open on the device; and
removing the reduced temporary logic from the device after the at least the portion of the application is closed by the device, wherein the downloading, the running, and the removing of the reduced temporary logic on the device are performed without providing an icon for the application on the device.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the reduced temporary logic comprises a reduced application bundle having a size that is smaller than a size of an application bundle for the application.
3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising, after removing the reduced temporary logic from the device:
downloading the application bundle for the application; and
installing the application on the device using the application bundle.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising, after the installing of the application, generating the icon for the application in a user interface on the device.
5. The method of claim 2 , further comprising downloading additional program logic for an additional portion of the application while running the reduced temporary logic, using a universal resource locator in the reduced application bundle.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the downloading of the reduced temporary logic is performed responsive to a selection of the application from within another application running on the device.
7. A device comprising:
a memory; and
at least one processor configured to:
download reduced temporary logic for a portion of an application on the device;
install the reduced temporary logic at the device;
run the reduced temporary logic for the portion of the application on the device while at least the portion of the application is open on the device; and
remove the reduced temporary logic from the device responsive to the at least the portion of the application being closed by the device.
8. The device of claim 7 , wherein the at least one processor is configured to download, run, and remove the reduced temporary logic without providing an icon for the application on the device.
9. The device of claim 7 , wherein the reduced temporary logic comprises a reduced application bundle having a size that is smaller than a size of an application bundle for the application.
10. The device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
after removal of the reduced temporary logic from the device:
download the application bundle for the application; and
install the application on the device using the application bundle.
11. The device of claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
after installation of the application, generate an icon for the application in a user interface on the device.
12. The device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
download additional program logic for an additional portion of the application while running the reduced temporary logic, using a universal resource locator in the reduced application bundle.
13. The device of claim 7 , wherein the at least one processor configured to download the reduced temporary logic responsive to a selection of the application from within another application running on the device.
14. A non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
downloading reduced temporary logic for a portion of an application on the device;
running the reduced temporary logic for the portion of the application on the device while at least the portion of the application is open on the device; and
removing the reduced temporary logic from the device once the at least the portion of the application is closed by the device.
15. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the downloading, the running, and the removing of the reduced temporary logic on the device are performed without providing an icon for the application on the device.
16. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 14 , wherein the reduced temporary logic comprises a reduced application bundle having a size that is smaller than a size of an application bundle for the application.
17. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise:
after removing the reduced temporary logic from the device:
downloading the application bundle for the application; and
installing the application on the device using the application bundle.
18. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 17 , further comprising, after the installing of the application, generating an icon for the application in a user interface on the device.
19. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , further comprising downloading additional program logic for an additional portion of the application while running the reduced temporary logic using a universal resource locator in the reduced application bundle.
20. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 19 , wherein the downloading of the reduced temporary logic is performed responsive to a selection of the application from within another application running on the device.
