Abstract: A method of operating a machine includes receiving via a network machine interface a schema defining a hierarchy of page objects for application logic on a plurality of different machine platforms; applying the schema to operate shell logic specific to a particular machine platform comprising the network machine interface via which the schema was received to provide a look and feel for application logic native to the particular machine platform; and cooperatively operating layout logic and navigation logic of the shell logic to cause the look and feel of the application logic native to the particular machine platform as defined by the hierarchy of page objects to be inconsistent on the plurality of different machine platforms.
