Running TreasureShell

TreasureShell is published as a self-contained, single-file Windows x64 application.

The published application includes the required .NET runtime, so a separate .NET runtime installation is not required to run TreasureShell.

Development Setup

Development uses:

• Windows x64
• PowerShell
• Git
• .NET 10 SDK
• HtmlAgilityPack via NuGet

Run:

.\Setup-TreasureShell.ps1

The setup path is:

dependency check
      |
      v
   restore
      |
      v
    build
      |
      v
   publish

Published application:

bin\Release\net10.0-windows\win-x64\publish\TreasureShell.exe

Don't just draw the fractal. Ride the spiral.

Fresh Windows PC

TreasureShell has been verified from a GitHub ZIP on a separate Windows PC.

Download and extract the repository ZIP, open PowerShell in the repository root, and run:

powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File .\Bootstrap-TreasureShell.ps1

The bootstrap verifies or installs:

• Git
• .NET 10 SDK
• nuget.org
• Inno Setup 7

It then restores, builds, publishes, compiles the Inno Setup installer, and verifies the final installer artifact.

Published application:

bin\Release\net10.0-windows\win-x64\publish\TreasureShell.exe

Final installer output:

Installer\Output\

The repository carries the reproducible build recipe rather than copies of the SDK or Inno Setup binaries.

Public Installer

TreasureShell is published as a self-contained Windows x64 application.

End users do not need the .NET SDK, Git, NuGet, PowerShell build tooling, or Inno Setup.

Public distribution artifact:

TreasureShell-Setup.exe

The repository bootstrap and build scripts remain developer tooling used to forge the installer.
