Greetings!

Wondering if there is a place to see what is going on with EXEOut? Like to see what you guys are doing "behind the scenes šŸ™‚ Blog?

Just seems like nothing is going on and starting to wonder if my two years of paid upgrades was worth the money. Don’t take this wrong, love EXEOut but like to see progress…
 
ExeOutput will receive an update after HTML Executable. We integrated a lot of new features into HTML Executable 2022 and they will also be integrated into ExeOutput 2022. The work on the Edge/Chromium is great, Microsoft added several requirements we had to the control they offer to developers, and moreover, a new project type for ExeOutput (in addition to console and GUI) is under development and we really hope to have it working as expected, because it will open lots of possibilities 😃
 
I am still awaiting an update, sitting on edge of seat for months. I love what you guys (and girls?) do, but really starting to wonder what is really happening with EXEOut?

It is disheartening to pay for couple of years of updates and get nothing in return šŸ™‚

But, I am still here…
 
It’s unfortunately ā€œas usualā€, we are adding big features and it is taking us more time to bring out the new version because the big features require a lot of internal work. Thanks for your great support BTW.
 
No unfortunately, but good news, WebView2 support is going to be finalized, so we’ll be able to offer a way to generate lighter EXE files with a good rendering engine. It’s a really big stuff so it’s taking more time than initially expected.
 
Thanks for the honesty. Means I will have to find another route for upcoming project. Hope I made the right decision is extending my exeout license another year.
 
Yep, me again.

I can’t wait to see what you guys have been up to.

You said end of summer and then said it going to take longer. Ok.

I am running a business and I have to plan ahead, just the way business works. In your view, when I can expect to see a new version with all the new goodies?

Thanks.
 
BTW are you more interested by the WebView2 engine feature or the ability to make pure server apps in the incoming ExeOutput release?
 
That is a VERY hard question for me to answer.

I am excited about the WebView2 feature and have been experimenting with it for few months (outside of exeout of course). Opens lots of new doors when developing apps but there are many restrictions.

I honestly do not know what you guys have planned for the pure server apps. I see you speak about it but have no clue/idea what the environment with be? Can you explain a little what the ā€œpure server appsā€ does? I assume it is like a real online php server but do not know for sure.

Educate me so I can provide you with an answer:)

Thanks for asking!
 
No, on the contrary. Your feedback is always appreciated.
Yes, Webview2 has more restrictions than Chromium, that’s why it’s complicated for us and takes more time.
For pure server apps, ExeOutput actually encapsulates the Apache server (Windows version) and serves files locally with a URL such as http://localhost:8421 for instance. Thus, you can access files from any web browser and even other computers/devices. PHP files can still be interpreted and they are still encrypted to avoid copying.
There is no GUI browser in server apps but we are working on a feature to combine GUI apps and server apps so that they can interact together.
The goal of using Apache for server apps is that any PHP application, including complex ones, should work.
I hope this is clearer now.

I would say work on Webview2 over time (it really is still evolving in my opinion) an concentrate on pure server apps. Many times in past this feature would have come in handy!

Thanks for taking the time to explain.
