Nectar

by Null

What the heck is this?

  • Nectar is a Linux app that allows you to run Windows Executable (.exe files) on, well, Linux
  • This app acts as a dashboard layer for Wine, while adding more features and performance tweaks

What exactly does this app add to Wine?

This app adds:

  • Linux X11 Display Tree Listener
  • Diagnostc GUI Console
  • Audio Management
  • Process Automation

Why should this app be chosen over Wine itself?

Well, in addition to the features above, this app also adds:

  • 'Administrator Mode' Toggle
  • DLL Overrides (To stop freezing and white screens)
  • Real-Time Diagnostics
  • Display Server Integration

This app also adds a slick cyan cyber-neon UI, and cool background music (made by Posifurg)

How to install/build

These packages, libraries, and compilation tools are required to build this app:

  • CMake (Minimum verison 3.16)
  • PKG-Config
  • C++ Compiler
  • Qt6 Widgets Dev. Modules
  • Qt6 Multimedia Dev. Modules
  • X11 Dev. Library Headers
  • Wine / Wine-Stating
  • Winetricks
  • GStreamer Media Core + Plugin Libraries

To compile, in your terminal, run: bash, git clone https://github.com/DevNull-l1r/Nectar cd Nectar mkdir build, cd build, cmake .., and finally, make && ./nectar
