TibixDev/winboat: Run Windows apps on 🐧 Linux with ✨ seamless integration

Avatar of hnHacker News•From github.com•Sep 02, 2025•4m read time

WinBoat is an open-source tool that enables running Windows applications natively on Linux systems through virtualization and containerization. It provides seamless integration with the Linux desktop environment, automated installation processes, filesystem sharing between Windows and Linux, and supports running both individual Windows apps and the full Windows desktop experience. The project is currently in beta and requires KVM virtualization, Docker, and specific system resources to function properly.
