ShellNews Bernard — Build 27

Commit fb4260e
Built 2026-02-25 23:07 UTC
Branch main

Bundle contents

File Description
kiosk.exe Wails ad-display kiosk (Startup Shell renderer)
launcher.exe Start this. Launches kiosk, serves dashboard, auto-updates

The dashboard (React app) is embedded inside launcher.exe — no Node.js or npm needed on the machine.

First-time setup

  1. Extract shell-ads-bundle-windows-x64.zip to any folder (e.g. C:\kiosk\)
  2. Run launcher.exe — that's it
  3. Dashboard → http://localhost:6969 (tunnelled via cloudflared at shellnews.exoad.net)

Updates

launcher.exe checks for new builds every hour. When a newer build is found
it downloads the bundle, replaces kiosk.exe, self-replaces launcher.exe
(which re-embeds the latest dashboard), and restarts automatically.
