Desktop Applications

Deploy CDFs as desktop applications to Windows, Mac, and Linux systems without worrying about platform specifics.

Build your CDF application once and it just works on all systems. Applications can load Wolfram's curated data, access Mathematica's computational power, and contain interactive controls automatically rendered in native style. Because desktop applications don't need internet access, they're ideal for classrooms, laboratories, secure environments, and remote locations.

Contact us about commercial use. To add enhanced features to your CDFs, talk to us about custom deployment options with Wolfram Player Pro.

How to Deploy

Mathematica offers a one-step deployment method with an interactive wizard. You can deploy either the entire document or a specific selection as a desktop application.

To open the wizard, choose the menu item File > Deploy > Standalone. To embed a selection instead of the entire file, select the part to be embedded before opening the wizard.

The wizard will walk you through saving the CDF.
