Abstract
Embodiments of a method and system for utilizing a configurable interface are disclosed. User information for a first user is accessed. The user information is reviewed to determine whether the user information includes a preselected configurable interface. The preselected configurable interface is provided based on the user information including the preselected configurable interface. Alternatively, based on the user information not including the preselected configurable interface, a configurable interface based on a user selection of the configurable interface from a plurality of available configurable interfaces is configured.

A method of providing a configurable interface, the method comprising:
- responsive to user information for a first user including a selection of a preselected configurable interface that provides access to an application hosted on an application server of a networked system:
- identifying a plurality of functional components that are associated with the preselected configurable interface, wherein the plurality of functional components are included on an interface data structure coupled between the application server and an interface server and wherein each of the plurality of functional components provides a particular server-side functionality and enables an interaction between the application and the preselected configured interface;
- accessing the plurality of functional components from the interface data structure;
- creating the preselected configurable interface using the accessed plurality of functional components to configure the preselected configurable interface;
- and
- providing the created preselected configurable interface via the interface server to enable communication between a client machine and the application server and to receive server-side functionality of the application using the plurality of functional components.
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions which, in response to execution by one or more processors, cause a machine to perform operations comprising:
- responsive to user information for a first user including a selection of a preselected configurable interface that provides access to an application hosted on an application server of a networked system:
- accessing a plurality of functional components from an interface data structure that is coupled between the application server and an interface server, wherein the plurality of functional components are associated with the preselected configurable interface and wherein each of the plurality of functional components provides a particular server-side functionality of the application;
- creating the preselected configurable interface using the accessed plurality of functional components to configure the preselected configurable interface;
- and
- providing the created preselected configurable interface via the interface server to enable communication between a client machine and the application server and to receive server-side functionality of the application using the plurality of functional components.
