Patent number: 11729248Abstract: Systems and method for migrating a web application from a source environment to a cloud service. A cloud service system accesses a temporary container containing a manifest and a plurality of web parts for the web application. The manifest includes a list of contents of the temporary container and defines an appearance and functionality of the web application. The cloud service system then reconstructs the web application on the cloud service by automatically generating a user interface environment for the web application on the cloud service based on the manifest and importing each web part of the web parts to the cloud service. The cloud service system configures each web part and the user interface environment to interact as defined by the manifest.
