Converting our games to apps?

Hey y’all! Quick question: Have any of y’all converted your decks into something like a standalone app (.exe for windows, .app for Mac, etc)? If so, what did you use?

There'd been a similar question in the main Decker community forum about a month ago that may have some helpful replies.

I've never done it myself, but if you put a deck named start.deck in the same folder as decker.exe, it'll automatically load that deck on startup, and if it's a locked deck then you get a standalone type experience. My understanding is this is the recommended way to do it. There's a bit about it in the documentation.

Another option is you could probably use electron to bundle the html version into something standalone, although that would likely be a bit heavy in terms of filesize.

Oh cool! I’ll look into that decker inclusion option! Thank you so much :)
