Why don't you bundle all the dependencies with the download?

This is one reason I like statically compiled apps. You can just give users one executable and it'll work. This is common with apps written in Go, but it's doable (with some caveats) in C# now with AoT in .NET 8.

Assuming the user uses the same OS that the developer runs, and that they release a statically compiled app for. In this example, I see the project is python and docker is mentioned in thrbdocs, while not 100% my bet is that the output would still not be the .exe file that thhis entitled asshole is demanding.
