.NET (WPF and Windows Forms) bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework

CefSharp - Embedded Chromium for .NET

This project contains .NET CLR bindings for The Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) by Marshall A. Greenblatt. The bindings are written in C++/CLI but can be used from any CLR language, e.g. C# or VB. CefSharp provides both WinForms and WPF web browser control implementations. See the CefSharp.WinForms.Example or CefSharp.Wpf.Example projects for example web browsers built using this library; they are (at this moment) the best "documentation" of how the control can actually be used.

This project is BSD licensed, which means that it can be used from both proprietary and free/open source applications. For the full details, see the LICENSE file.

Documentation & mailing list

Work-in-progress documentation can be found here. If something is missing/incomplete, please don't hesitate to ask at the CefSharp Google Group. You might also find help by searching the archive to that same Google Group for previous questions.

Binary Release

Binary releases contain everything needed to embed Chromium in your CLR application.

• Stable (requires .NET 4): CefSharp-1.25.7 - binaries, source. Based on Chromium 25.0.1364.152
• Stable (older release, works with .NET 2. Requires 7-Zip to extract.): CefSharp-1.25.0. Based on Chromium 25.0.1364.152

See Downloads page for older releases. Please note that the latest Stable release is the only version officially supported; it's very unlikely that we will fix bugs in older releases.

Forks

• The cefsharp project page is the recommended starting place. This is the "official" CefSharp fork, as maintained by the CefSharp community.
• You can also view the entire network of public forks/branches.
