Description

AFAIK Nuget package of WebView2 has /build dependency assets.

If I use WebView2 nuget package within a nuget package A.
And I use nuget package A within a nuget package B.
package A will be built with build dependency assets of WebView2.
package B not.

I guess it's enough to add /buildTransitive folder with same content of /build folder.

More detail here.

Thx in advance.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the NuGet package layout, especially the existing /build assets and the proposed /buildTransitive location, then read the linked NuGet guidance on transitive build assets. Done means a package A that depends on WebView2 passes the relevant build dependency through to a package B that consumes A.
