  • winetricks

    Winetricks is an easy way to work around problems in Wine

  • The issue is the same for older titles too, with the most popular being the GTA V multiplayer mods FiveM/RAGE. It's one of the most popular games for streamers with hundreds of thousands of people watching every day streamers playing the NoPixel or other FiveM servers but the client is likely to be incompatible with Linux for a long time to come.

  • WolvenKit

    Community Mod editor/creator for REDengine games.

  • For example Cyberpunk 2077 got released recently and it barely works on Linux, plus the newly released modding tool for it doesn't work on it either.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • steamtinkerlaunch

    Discontinued Linux wrapper tool for use with the Steam client for custom launch options and 3rd party programs [Moved to: https://github.com/sonic2kk/steamtinkerlaunch] (by frostworx)

  • It is "trivial to run different programs in the game's prefix, in addition to the running game" (either in parallel or the the custom program first or only the custom program instead of the game exe - see wiki) using steamtinkerlaunch

  • avalonia-dotnet-templates
