1. A server system that establishes a device-independent, contextually driven application computing environment, the server system comprising:
a web portal that communicates with a set of client computing devices, including via a web port of a given client computing device;
a user identification system, coupled to a user database interface, that produces an identification of a given user based on data selected from the group consisting of user login data, user biometric data, user token data, and combinations thereof;
a sensor data interface that receives sensor data from a sensor data uploader running on the given client computing device pertaining to a physical world interaction of the given client computing device;
a context determiner, coupled to the sensor data interface and to the user identification system and the user database interface, that processes the sensor data and the user identification, to derive a current device-independent application computing context comprising a third-party application for contextually driven interactions that are both specific to the given user and specific to a given location with respect to the portable computing device, the third-party application comprising a local browser process configured to run on the given client computing device;
a configuration interface, coupled to the context determiner, that automatically communicates, to a configuration implementer executing in the local browser process, a current user interface configuration corresponding to the current device-independent application computing context, and causing the configuration implementer executing in the local browser process to automatically transform a user interface of the third-party application according to the current user interface configuration; and
a context module loader, coupled to the context determiner, that selects and automatically loads a selected one of a set of context modules to interact with the local browser process according to the current device-independent application computing context.
