Browser-based fetch of external libraries

Abstract

A browser-based fetch of an external library may include a browser receiving a request from a web application to load an external library and determining whether the web browser has a bundled version of the library. If the bundled version exists, the browser may load the bundled version. If the bundled version does not exist, the browser may fetch the external library. When the external library is configured to send data to the remote server the method may include the browser intercepting a request to send the data to the remote server, determining that the data may be sent at a later time, and storing the data until a connection with the remote server is established. Additionally, a web store may inspect a web application for use of an external library and prevent the web application from being added to the web store when the external library is not trusted.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
