A particular method includes receiving credentials during execution of an application at a computing device. The credentials are evaluated to determine whether a user associated with the credentials is authorized to edit the application while the application is being executed. Upon determining that the user is authorized, an editing control is enabled during the execution of the application. The editing control is associated with a graphical user interface (GUI) element of the application and is operable to update the GUI element during execution of the application.
