The method also includes identifying a first server-side application package using the first signature. The method also includes generating a differential update package using the first server-side application package and a second server-side application package as inputs, wherein the differential update package, when applied to the client side application package, is operable to modify to the client-side application package such that it is functionally equivalent to the second server-side application package.
