Abstract
A computing device receives a notification from a server that a bundle is available for download. The bundle includes software written in a scripting language. The computing device downloads the bundle from the server and authenticates a digital signature of the bundle. The computing device installs the bundle in a user partition of the memory and modifies a path variable in an operating system of the computing device. The path variable is modified to include a location of the installed bundle.
