APPLICATION STORE TOPICS
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- defining topics to organize application data within pages for interaction with an application catalog;
enabling collaborators to submit content for one or more of the topics;
obtaining submissions of content for the one or more topics from the collaborators; and
configuring pages for interaction with the application catalog to selectively include the content obtained from the collaborators within the topics.

Abstract
Techniques for application store topics are described that enable collaboration on application store content between a service provider and third-party collaborators. A framework of topics can be defined to include a plurality of topics to organize application data within pages for interaction with an application catalog. Collaborators can opt to submit content for one or more of the topics that are defined as customizable. The submitted content from collaborators can be incorporated into the topics and/or can replace default content provided for the topic. Different topics within the application store pages can be configured as separate and independent topic containers that can derive content from different sources. In at least some embodiments, content provided for a particular topic container within a page is selected based upon a particular type of device that navigates to the page and/or various device criteria associated with the device.

11. A computer implemented method comprising:
-
obtaining system information for a client device; ascertaining a device type of the client device based on the system information; and determining, based on the device type, whether to include customized topic content provided by one or more collaborators within one or more topic containers included in pages provided by a service provider for interaction with an application catalog. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. One or more computer-readable storage media storing instructions that, when executed via one or more computing devices, implement an application store module for interaction with an application catalog from a service provider, the application store module configured to:
-
expose a user interface having a plurality of topic containers corresponding to different topics and implemented as separate and independent portions of the user interface to organize application data from the application catalog according to the corresponding topics; ascertain a device type associated with a client device that accesses the application catalog; and selectively populate the plurality of topic containers with content from the service provider and one or more collaborators based upon the device type ascertained for the client device. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
