Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, methods and techniques for providing network applications. For instance, remote system(s) may generate a link that provides access to a network application. After generating the link, the remote system(s) may provide the link to a device of a source, such as a user, a developer, or a third-party service. The source may then use the device to share the link with a user. For example, the source may use the device to send a message that includes the link, post the link on a website, or share the link using a social media platform. The user may then use a device to view and select the link. Based on selecting the link, the remote system(s) may perform one or more actions. For example, the remote system(s) may create a session for the network application and provide the device with data to connect to the session.
