This Website hosts file downloads for the Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) project. These are official builds and are recommended for general usage unless otherwise stated in the file summary. For additional information or help using CEF please visit the Project Page or Forum.

Binary Distributions

Binary distributions include all files necessary to build a CEF-based application. They are named following the form "cef_binary_X.Y.Z_platform.zip" where "X.Y.Z" is the version number and "platform" is the operating system. They are stand-alone archive files and do not require the download of CEF or Chromium source code. Binary distributions are provided for both CEF1 and CEF3 so pay attention to the version number (1.Y.Z or 3.Y.Z respectively) when selecting a file to download. More information about CEF1 vs CEF3 can be found here. More information about versioning and the CEF build process can be found here.

Symbol Files

Symbol files for binary distributions are provided as a separate download. At this time we only provide symbol files for the compiler version used to create the binary distribution. Symbol files follow the same naming structure as binary distributions but include the word "symbols" at the end of the file name.

Download List

Below is the list of files available for download. By default only the current versions are shown. You can also download older (deprecated) versions.
A tool for extracting 7z files can be downloaded here or via the package manager on most Linux distributions.
