To compile

You will need DotNet Core 2.0 installed on your machine, which is available as part of Visual Studio 2017.

cd into the root project directory. Now run the following command:

dotnet publish -c release -r win10-x64 --self-contained

This will generate a folder containing device-sync.exe along with all necessary dlls, such that you can just drop the folder onto any Windows 7/8/10 PC and run the executable. The folder is generated at:

bin/release/netcoreapp2.0/win10-x64/publish
