I suggest watching in 1.25x speed.

In this video I am demonstrating how to build an older version of CEF (branch 2785, chromium 53) from 2016 and reduce the size of the app mainly libcef.dll.

Please note that this video is recorded in August 2019 so some things might be different and you might need to resolve some issues by yourself, but hopefully after watching this it would be easier for you.

I saw that there are virtually no videos showing how to build CEF so I decided to upload this one as it is really hard to resolve any issues if you don't know what you are doing which was the case for me.

Here is the link to the github repo. There I have branches with builds for chromium 39 and 53.
