Chromely small, single file executable

This example shows how to build a single executable, small (less than 200KB), Chromely app - https://github.com/mattkol/Chromely

It is based on: https://github.com/mattkol/Chromely/wiki/Getting-Started-CefSharp-Winapi

How it works

At the beginning the application checks if there is a "CefSharp" environment (package) in the "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CefSharp\packages" directory. If the package does not exist, the application will create it (by downloading files from the Nuget server). The "CefSharp" package contains files from two nuget packages: CefSharp.Common and cef.redist.x64. If the "CefSharp" package is in the required place (at "%LOCALAPPDATA%\CefSharp\packages\cefsharp_67.0.0_x64"), the application will use it.

Steps to run the application

• .\build.ps1
• .\_artifacts\simple-chromely.exe

About the build process

It uses

• http://nuke.build/ (build automation system)
• https://github.com/MiloszKrajewski/LibZ (creates a single file with assemblies embedded into it)
