Computers: Software
Swedish term or phrase: skarpa programvaran.
Any ideas regarding the use of the word "skarp". What about online?
Konceptet är helt modulbaserat och nya funktioner kan utvecklas som fristående applikationer innan de länkas in i den skarpa programvaran.

Suggestion...but...not sure (sharp)
The concept is entirely module based and new functions can be developed as independent applications before they are linked in to the online software.

"live" application
Explanation:
Skarp is not necessarily online but in som context i suppose you could use it. Skarp means that the app is alive and kicking, working, as opposed to a dummy, "testpilot", betaversion or demoversion etc. all depending on context

Explanation:
Just to say I agree with Mårten's suggestion, and am adding a suggestion for the whole sentence. From my days in the computer business, (and with limited context), I would write it in English computer jargon, something like :

"The architecture/design is entirely modular, and new functionality can be developed as free-standing applications before being linked to the live system."
