  • Publication number: 20170090910
    Abstract: In some aspects, a method for incorporating mobile content into an application may include retrieving, from a remote file server, application information and static cache data, incorporating the application information and the static cache data into the application information into an application binary, and validating the static cache data using cache version information, where validating may include determining whether a previous version of the static cache data exists on the mobile device, comparing the previous version of the static cache data with cache version information located on a remote server, and selectively retrieving an updated version of the static cache data from the remote server based on the cache version information, and incorporating the application binary into the application using the validated static cache data.
