Systems and methods for gesture interaction with cloud-based applications

Various systems and methods described herein relate to server-based computing, where the systems and methods provide a client with access to an application executing remotely from the client device and having access to data (e.g., one or more files) residing on a cloud-based storage (e.g., provided by a third-party cloud-based storage service, such as Dropbox or Box). For some systems and methods, the application may be remotely executed and provided to the client such that the application has in-application/embedded access (hereafter, referred to as "native access") to the cloud-based storage and files residing on the cloud-based storage. Additionally, some systems and methods may enable a remotely executed application to receive a gesture user input, even when the remotely executed application is not natively configured to receive such user input.
