  • It’s a compatibility layer on Linux for running Windows programs.
  • winecfg shows a Windows-like GUI that lets you customize aspects like your Windows version (e.g. XP, 7, etc.).
  • winetricks is practically necessary from what I understand. It can be used to run “.verb” scripts and install components (e.g. ”$ winetricks corefonts winhttp wininet”).
  • To install on macOS using Brew, you can run brew install --cask --no-quarantine wine-stable
    • (if you want to see different flavors of that cask, e.g. wine@staging, you can do brew search --cask wine)
