Follow these instructions in order to run this app:
- 1. Downloaded this application in your PC.
- 2. Enter in our file manager https://www.onworks.net/myfiles.php?username=XXXXX with the username that you want.
- 3. Upload this application in such filemanager.
- 4. Start any OS OnWorks online emulator from this website, but better Windows online emulator.
- 5. From the OnWorks Windows OS you have just started, goto our file manager https://www.onworks.net/myfiles.php?username=XXXXX with the username that you want.
- 6. Download the application and install it.
- 7. Download Wine from your Linux distributions software repositories. Once installed, you can then double-click the app to run them with Wine. You can also try PlayOnLinux, a fancy interface over Wine that will help you install popular Windows programs and games.
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.

Ion
DESCRIPTION
Ion is a modular C++ toolkit for building high-performance 2D/3D graphics applications with a strong emphasis on portability, correctness, and developer ergonomics. Rather than a monolithic engine, it offers focused libraries—math, image, GPU resource management, shader utilities, remote inspection, and platform abstractions—that you can adopt à la carte. The rendering layer wraps modern OpenGL/OpenGL ES concepts with a carefully layered API that tracks object lifetimes, deduplicates resources, and enables safe multithreaded recording of draw calls. Asset utilities handle image formats, texture compression, and color management so pipelines can stay consistent across desktop and mobile GPUs. A “remote” subsystem exposes live application state for introspection and debugging, which is extremely useful when tuning performance on devices you can’t easily instrument. Across the stack, Ion emphasizes deterministic behavior, robust error checking in debug builds.
Features
- Cross-platform GPU abstraction with safe resource and state management
- Math and image libraries tailored for graphics workloads
- Deterministic, thread-friendly recording of render commands
- Texture and image tooling, including compression and color utilities
- Remote inspection for live scene and resource debugging
- Layered architecture so teams can adopt only the pieces they need
