[Other] Request for a Portable Version of Strata 2.0

Description

I would like to request a portable version of Strata 2.0, which is currently in beta.

Ideally, the portable version would allow users to download and run Strata directly without going through an installation process. This would make it easier to use Strata on different systems, run it from a dedicated folder or USB drive, and get started without requiring administrator permissions or modifying the system.

Expected Behavior

  • Provide a portable build of Strata 2.0 that does not require installation.
  • Allow users to extract the downloaded files and launch the application directly.
  • Keep the application's required files and, if feasible, its configuration and data within the portable directory.
  • Make the portable version available alongside the regular installer, if possible.

Strata Version

Strata 2.0 Beta

System Information

  • Operating System: Windows 11
  • GPU: RTX 5070Ti 16GB Vram
  • RAM: 64GB

    Thanks for the issue. To keep the tracker readable, every item needs an area prefix in the title and the parts of the issue form filled in. This one is missing:

    • Start the title with its area: [Engine], [GUI], [TUI], [Benchmark], [Docs] or [Other], then a short description. Example: "[Engine] decode stops after 2 minutes".
    • Add the Strata version (Settings > About, or strata --version).
    • Add your graphics card with its VRAM, your RAM and your operating system.

    Edit the issue (title and description) and this note goes away on its own. If it is still missing parts in 5 days it will be closed, which is not a rejection: fix it and comment /reopen.

    Details: CONTRIBUTING.md
