Wine is a way to run Windows software on Linux, but with no Windows required. Wine is an open-source Windows compatibility layer that can run Windows programs directly on any Linux desktop. Essentially, Wine is trying to re-implement enough of Windows from scratch so that it can run all those Windows applications without actually needing Windows.

DESCRIPTION:
macroquad is a lightweight, easy-to-use game library for the Rust programming language, offering developers a relatively simple and streamlined path to build games across platforms. The library is heavily inspired by simpler game frameworks (like raylib), but brings the ergonomic and safety features of Rust to 2D — and some minimal 3D — development. With Macroquad, you don’t need to worry about low-level graphics plumbing: it handles window and input management, rendering, UI, and more, letting you focus on game logic. A strength of Macroquad is its cross-platform reach: it supports desktop (Windows, Linux, macOS), web (via WebAssembly / HTML5), and mobile (Android, iOS) without requiring platform-specific code. Compilation is relatively fast with minimal dependencies, so small projects or prototypes can spin up quickly. Because it’s “batteries included” for common tasks (rendering, drawing shapes, text, basic UI, game loop), Macroquad works well for rapid prototyping.
Features
- Cross-platform support across desktop, web (WASM/HTML5), Android, and iOS
- Efficient 2D rendering with automatic geometry batching for good performance
- Built-in immediate-mode UI library (for menus, HUDs, debug overlays, etc.)
- Minimal dependencies and fast compile/build times, good for small or lightweight projects
- Single-codebase approach — no need for platform-dependent defines or boilerplate when targeting multiple platforms
- Simple API and ease of use: good for quick prototypes, small games, or developers learning Rust/game dev
