WinBoat is a very interesting tool in development to run Windows apps on Linux in a full containerised environment and it just got even better.

Tried it. I definitely like Winboat for its ease if installation and its GUI. It’s much more accessible than Winapps (its primary competitor), but it’s still kinda buggy. Windows don’t always open as expected (delayed open or not at all). I’m sure it’ll get resolved in time, but for now, Winapps is still more reliable, despite being a significant pain in the ass to set up.
