It's here. Raven is now Open source! A new Windows compatibility layer for Linux (and soon Mac OS). The website and code are now public alongside the whole story of the project, you can read about it here: useraven.org/news/introducin… Waiting for your feedback, and please, be kind with it, it's young 🥹 #Linux #Windows #MaxOS #OpenSource #Development

Raven runs Windows apps on Linux, but not the Wine way 👀 
While Wine translates Windows into Linux, Raven gives apps a Windows they recognize: real MSI installs, WinSxS, .NET 2.0 to 4.8, DirectX redists, and a snapshot before every install so nothing breaks your prefix. Google Chrome, Steam (with the Unturned game installed and testes), Notepad++ and KeePass already works out of the box 🤟 I promise (because I already got at that point) better performance and out of the box experience. No hacking around with winetricks and similar tools. #Windows #Linux #OpenSource

It is now possible to test Office 365 on Linux via Soda 11.0-17 and Bottles! BUT, please read here before doing it: this was a long-run work, tested only on my laptop. It's a work that touches wine, DLLs, scripts, wrappers, Bottles and many many other stuff, so please be careful, It is far more likely that it won't work than the opposite. Report issues the proper way as explained in the following link, to help me fix this ~15 years old issue <3 github.com/bottlesdevs/progr… #Linux #Windows

Microsoft 365 login on Linux now works using your system browser! I made a new Soda Identity Bridge which connects Office to Bottles, handles the login outside Wine and stores it in your system keyring 😎✌️ Available in Soda 11.0-23. Want to try Office 365 on Linux?

Experimenting with gaze control in Singularity Desktop 🤯The system learns where you're looking across multiple displays, then lets you combine gaze with hand gestures to control the desktop. The goal is a truly hands-free desktop mode for people with limited or no hand mobility. The hard part is mapping the DE on a 3D space. Still early, still experimenting, doing my best 😅♥️ More info, and ways to support the project: sinty.dev #Linux #OpenSource #Accessibility #Development #Design

You can now install and use any Linux distribution via cpak as a personal environment. I published some of them in the cpak' store. Here how to use the Arch Linux one: cpak install github.com/containerpak/arch… cpak environment create --name MyArch --origin github.com/containerpak/arch… cpak environment shell --environment MyArch --command /bin/bash You can create as many environments you need. cpak.it/store/Distributions #Linux #Cloud #Development

First real bugs, first real fixes 🐒 People compiled the Singularity Desktop from source on day zero and found the rough edges I never could on my own machines. Previews, crashes, icons, the dock... all sorted. Thanks for the reports, keep them coming 🫠 sinty.dev/news/first-real-bu… #Windows #Linux #OpenSource #Development #Design

Singularity Desktop (alpha, let's say) is officially LIVE! Enjoy it, test it, and please report every single bug or idea on GitHub! ⚠️ Note: No ISO or Vanilla OS images for now. You'll need to compile it yourself, but please READ the documentation first. <3 Read the full announcement I wrote from the heart here: sinty.dev/news/singularity-d… #Windows #Linux #OpenSource #Development #Design

Now the Bottles' sandbox alerts you when a program lives outside the bottle and it can't reach it, instead of silently failing. You pick: run it without the sandbox, or copy it inside the bottle and keep the sandbox on. Bottles 64.1 rolling out if the next hours! #Windows #Linux #OpenSource #Gaming
