Methods and systems for dynamic runtime generation of customized applications

A user equipment (UE) device for programmatic runtime generation of an application. The UE device receives a UI definition file that includes definitions indicating visual appearance attributes of portions of the application, a set of components that are UI building blocks to be presented within the application, and a set of behaviors that may be performed by the components, where the definitions include attribute-value pairs. The UE device receives a set of component definition files that include code for implementing components that includes the components indicated by the UI definition file and after a beginning of an execution of the application, the UE device parses the UI definition file to identify the visual appearance attributes, the set of components, and the set of behaviors; and dynamically instantiates the set of components based upon the parsed UI definition file and the set of component definition files to create the application.
