Add portable builds #165

Open Shayan-To opened 7 months ago

Describe the feature

I almost always download portable versions of applications. And I think it should be easy to provide portable versions alongside the setup ones you are providing.

Thanks for the awesome project!

Thank you!

This app is built using Tauri, which requires Webview2 as a dependency on Windows, so a portable version would only work if that's already installed (which it is, on windows 11).

I extracted the exe setup file, and was able to run the application without any installation. (on Windows 10)

And if Webview2 is a requirement, a link to the official page would suffice, I think. (It would be more convenient for me, at least.)

If that can be automated in the Github Action I can add it.
