Boxedwine

Boxedwine is an emulator that runs Windows applications. It achieves this by running a 32-bit version of Wine, and emulating the Linux kernel and CPU. It is written in C++ with SDL and is supported on multiple platforms.

Boxedwine is open source and released under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 (GPL).

Features

  • Runs 16/32-bit Windows programs
  • Works on Windows, MacOSX, Linux, and Web
  • Can run multiple versions of Wine, from 3.1 to 11.0
  • Apps and games using OpenGL, Direct3D and Vulkan are supported

  • 50% Faster for all platforms except WASM. Uses 20% less memory for 64-bit builds.
  • Added Wine 11 suport
  • Added OpenGL on top of D3D12 for Windows ARM64 build
