Abstract
In some examples, a method includes downloading, from an application provider, a patch to be applied to a first application element and a stripped version of the application that does not include one or more application elements to be reused during installation of the application, decompressing the first application element to generate a decompressed version of the first application element, and decompressing the patch to generate a decompressed version of the patch. The method may also include applying the decompressed version of the patch to the decompressed version of the first application element to generate a patched application element, compressing the patched application element to generate a compressed patched application element, and installing the application using the compressed patched application element, the stripped version of the application, and the one or more application elements other than the first application element.
