Abstract
This specification describes technologies relating to software installation. In general, a method of installing software can include obtaining application information for a software application to be installed on a target platform, the application information including an application name, an application icon, version information, and application code; obtaining a template executable including machine code native to the target platform; and adding the application information to the template executable to form an application executable for the software application.
