  • Patent number: 11907707
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for configuring a software application through a remote configuration service. An example method generally includes receiving, from a remote configuration service, a declarative construct. Generally, the declarative construct includes a definition of a workflow in an application to be executed within a player application deployed on a client device. Information associated with the definition of the workflow is extracted by parsing the declarative construct according to a schema defining a format of the declarative construct. The workflow is executed in the player application based on the extracted information defining functionality of the workflow.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11734498
    Abstract: Systems and methods of editing a user experience by a what you see is what you get (wysiwyg) editor are disclosed. A system obtains a visible portion of a document object model for a document, with the visible portion including one or more visible objects to be presented to a user during a user experience. Instead of the visible portion being generated by the wysiwyg editor (thus requiring the visible portion to be rendered again at a later time by a rendering engine), the visible portion to be used is generated by the rendering engine based on a schema of the document. To allow such, the system generates and outputs an overlay to be placed on the visible portion during display of the visible portion, with the overlay to receive user inputs to the visible portion and thus prevent user interaction with the visible portion.
