I miss ArcReader - what's the alternative?

[karyn_rosa123]

Hi,

I know ArcReader is a thing of the past.  I have taken a career break from GIS and am now back and am wanting something with a similar function as ArcReader but not sure what that is.  

I can publish my layers to ArcGIS online or Portal for ArcGIS (enterprise) and create a web map there to share with others but I don't find it nearly as easy as it used to be with ArcPublisher/ArcReader to share a nice looking quick read only map with people in my team with the click of a button.

What is the best workflow?

Thanks very much.

From the deprecation notice, some links for suggested pathway

Just to say,  I *still* miss ArcReader too!  There still isn't an alternative that allows you to easily share a read-only map with a few people (without venturing into additional licences, etc. for web mapping users).
