appRules Desktop Application

OVERVIEW

A very powerful feature of appRules is the appRules Desktop Application (appRules.Desktop.exe) which allows you to run appRules as a traditional Windows Desktop Application without a web server or an internet connection. The application runs inside a window and it is self-hosted. You can also use appRules.Desktop to quickly explore the features of appRules without having to use IIS or appRules HostService .

INTEGRATED CHROMIUM (CHROME) BROWSER

The appRules Desktop application uses the latest build of Chromium (Chrome) browser. The browser is embedded into the application.

HOW TO USE IT

Just launch the executable (appRules.Desktop.exe) and the appRules application will load automatically. Note: appRules.Desktop.exe must be run from the root of your appRules Portal installation, at the same level as web.Config.

CONCLUSION

The appRules Desktop application is a powerful solution that allows you to hit-the-ground running with appRules without having to configure IIS or the appRules.HostService application. Basically, this powerful implementation can fully replace IIS in a single executable
