A method includes, at a container application installed at the computing device, the container application configured to execute hosted script based applications, identifying a hosted application to execute. The method further includes, at the container application, obtaining information identifying a limited set of capabilities from among the native device capabilities indicating which of the native device capabilities the hosted application has been granted access to. The method further includes, at the container application, executing the hosted application and enforcing limits on the hosted application such that the hosted application is only able to access the native device capabilities identified in the limited set of capabilities.
