Developing applications online
First Claim
1. A method for developing applications online, the method comprising the computer-implemented steps of:
- receiving a first request from a first user using a first browser running on a first client;
in response to said first request, providing a first electronic document that generates a first interface when said first electronic document is displayed by said first browser, wherein said first interface includes a first edit field for said first user to type in application code;
receiving said application code that is typed in said first edit field by said first user, wherein said application code is submitted by said first interface in response to said first user selecting a first object included in said first interface; and
storing said application code at a server that is remote from said first client, wherein said application code can be executed from said server in response to a first service request from a first end user.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for providing a network based operating system for mobile clients is disclosed. Services may be developed that can be used to support different client devices with different capabilities. The services provide output with multiple variations based on different devices, and an intermediary selects the variation best suited for the requesting device. An online software development system is provided to allow services to create, edit, test, and deploy applications at an intermediary using only a browser at the client end. Services may also be provided that can be accessed and referred to by other services, thereby facilitating the combining of different services. Services may also store and access data at an intermediary using variables and a mapping of the stored data to the variables. Data stored at the intermediary may be used to allow an end user to return to a previously accessed service.
