I developed an application made of three scripts calling each other and that generates a basic GUI with gWidgetsand uses lot of libraries.
I was wondering how to deploy this and make sure that the libraries are installed on the client machine.
Thanks

I am looking to create a better R software development life cycle for some Shiny data analytics apps.
The first phase was to deploy the applications to AWS ECS and to build and test the docker image locally after development.
But we are still having issues with differences in the development environment and the docker environment.
The production base image is rocker/shiny-verse. I was looking into having the developer use rocker/rstudio locally to develop in, which is a possibility, but the Visual Studio Code experience will be a native app (instead of a browser) and would actually be debugging in the same container environment as it would run.
I can do this with .NET applications running in a container and debugging from VSCode, but I haven't seen a way to do this with R.
Is this possible, and if so, how?
I have a JavaFX Application which is built in Eclipse IDE and runs fine in my Environment since I also have the JAVA FX SDK connected to the environment. How can I have my Application run on any computer. I want to know how or is it possible for a JAVA FX Application to run on any computer even without the JAVA FX SDK. I have made my project into a JAR File however I can only run my program using Command Prompt since I run the Jar File, also having to include the VM Environments to have the program run. What steps can I take to have my Application to turn in an application which a normal user can run on their computer. I have looked over this Stack Overflow Question which uses a Launch 4j to turn a jar into a .exe. What is the significance that the file being a .exe? Will it run on a computer without Java FX? My question is mainly on how will my program usability be affected since it uses JAVA FX?
Try jpackage to generate native bundle if you are using java module system.
Or jlink to generate a custom jre and write a start script.
Fitnesse download page only has option for standalone.jar and this is also what the instructions are for. Is it somehow possible to install FitNesse on a separate app server, such as Tomcat? There's not directly any war/ear to download, but can I bundle one somehow?
I'm experimenting with acceptance testing frameworks and need to run the tests on a very specific test environment, and thus require a possibility for installing on an already running app container where the tests are executed. Changes for getting even java executable from command line in this environment are slim, and if possible, the process would take probably months to realize.
I do not believe it is possible, but even if you were to get the wiki running inside an app server, a test run would still try to start a new java process (by starting the java executable) so you still need access to that executable.
But does the test environment really need to be in the app server? I usually use FitNesse to test an application from the outside: the test framework makes remote (http) calls to an application running in an app server, but it does not run in that same app server itself.
I wanted to know if it's possible to automate the deployment of an ASP.Net MVC application. This application is meant to run locally on the host PC and I what I want to do is create an installer to make it easy for end-users to setup quickly. I've never tried this approach for web applications and I wanted to see what my options are.
I was thinking of using something like Cassini or aspNETserve and somehow automating the installer to set everything up on the fly. Any insight is appreciated, if there are any questions or if more details are required, please let me know. Thanks.
I would use the WebPlatform installer to set all your dependencies setup. You can script that tool and have it run all the pre-reqs for you. (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/gg433092.aspx)
Also, I would use IIS Express to host. It is also setup via script to setup your app root, paths, permissions, etc. (http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/870/running-iis-express-from-the-command-line/)
So in theory a simple script or installer could deploy all of this for you and run the above two as well as deploying your application.
Which is the best method to deploy a web application. Currently i am publishing the application and placing that folder in the server and creating virtual directory and providing windows authentication.
I just want to know this is a better metod to deploy or i need to use any other deployment technique?
Plese suggest
It really depends on the situation. For some situations, using Visual Studio's publish feature (right click project) works great. However in some situations, particular larger organizations or environments where the infrastructure group and development team are a little more isolated, you need to use a Web Application Installer or an MSI package. I've also had instances where the easiest thing to do was create a simple .bat file and create an external command in Visual Studio.
Use a web application installer, easy to create with Visual Studio.
If you need a third person to deploy your application in production servers, I would suggest you to deploy using a MSI, it would also help you to version your release.
MSI can be created using various ways including but not limited to
