The repository for a user's dashboard could be stored on a remote server. This alleviates some issues:

  • No access to file system where repository is stored prevents tampering
  • Easily shared between multiple computers/browsers

But it introduces others:

  • The remote repository is an additional third-party that must be trusted
  • Internet access might be required to use the dashboard, even for locally cached apps
