Methods and systems for application rendering

A system comprising a computing device for providing an application, the computing device comprising:

• at least one processing device;
• and
• at least one computer readable data storage device storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processing device, cause the computing device to:
• retrieve an application script file comprising a plurality of scripts corresponding to a plurality of functions of a network application, wherein the network application is a web application;
• decompose the application script file into a first script file and a second script file, wherein the at least one processing device configured to decompose the application script file comprises the at least one processing device configured to:
• determine at least one function of the plurality of functions for deferred rendering;
• create the first script file by removing, from the application script file, at least one script corresponding to the determined at least one function for deferred rendering;
• and
• create the second script file comprising the removed at least one script;
• transmit the first script file to the user device, wherein the first script file is executed to provide an initial render of the network application;
• and
• transmit the second script file to the user device, wherein the removed at least one script in the second script file is executed to patch on the fly the initial render of the network application and to include the at least one function deferred from the initial render.

A computer readable storage device including computer readable instructions, which when executed by a processing unit are operative for providing an application, comprising:

• retrieving an application script file comprising a plurality of scripts corresponding to a plurality of components of an application, wherein the application is a web application;
• decomposing the application script file into a first script file and a second script file, wherein decomposing the application script file comprises:
• determining at least one component of the plurality of components for deferred rendering;
• creating the first script file by removing, from the application script file, at least one script corresponding to the determined at least one component for deferred rendering;
• and
• creating the second script file comprising the removed at least one script;
• transmitting the first script file to the user device, wherein scripts in the first script file are executed to provide an initial render of the application;
• and
• transmitting the second script file to the user device for execution on the user device to patch on the fly the initial render of the application and to include the at least one component deferred from the initial render.
