WinBoat seems interesting. I will be keeping my eye on this one.
Since I started using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) in the last couple of years.. especially at work.. my work has been more productive, running certain GUI apps that "appear" to be running on Windows. There are some odd quirks to it, but its decent. On top of this, I can run podman or use shell tools (and bash)
However, I was wondering what the opposite equiverlant would be in linux land. I mean, I rarely use Windows Applications when on a Linux machine. In the past, I remember playing GTA:Vice City through Wine and was 98% awesome. Just a few missing images and thats it. Other than this, I've had little reason to use Windows applications on Linux.
Recently, I always wondered if there would be a "Linux Subsystem for Windows" equiverlant, abling to run pretty much any app. It would give my daughter the upperhand, which I recently installed Debian on her laptop... but I know there will be some Schoolwork with Microsoft products... WinBoat might be the answer.
