Yup. It's just a set of commandline tools.

No, why should you with the binaries available?

Exactly.
Alternatively you could take a look at WiXEdit which also bundles the
wix binaries:

I did not find it a big help to understanding what the cvsnt installer
does though, because it obviously does not handle/visualize the
inter-linking of source files which the cvsnt installer makes extensive
use of. That way you never get the "big picture"...
