Solved: Is it possible to package with Chrome?

[ghost]

I want my application to work for everyone, even with Chrome. Is it possible for me to package my application with Chrome, even though it defeats the purpose of carlo?

I was also wondering this same thing. Would love if there is a way to package with Chrome so that people that have not installed it can easily run my apps.

I think that I've found a solution.

1. Install chromium

   npm install chromium

2. Add the executablePath option to carlo.launch([options]) and set it to chromium.path

   
   const carlo = require('carlo');
   + const chromium = require('chromium');

(async () => { // Launch the browser. const app = await carlo.launch({

• executablePath: chromium.path, });

  // Terminate Node.js process on app window closing. app.on('exit', () => process.exit());

  // Tell carlo where your web files are located. app.serveFolder(__dirname);

  // Expose 'env' function in the web environment. await app.exposeFunction('env', _ => process.env);

  // Navigate to the main page of your app. await app.load('example.html'); })();

3. Package your application

   npx pkg index.js

🥳 You're done!

Keep in mind that it hasn't been properly tested, just quickly tried.
