Wine AppImage but for macOS
14.05.26
Wine AppImage but for macOS. On macOS, Wine runs Windows applications too. The equivalent of an AppImage on macOS would be an .app bundle. They'd use Wine (or Wine-Crossover/Whisky) to package a Windows program into a self-contained macOS .app bundle. Let me think about the best approach: 1. Wine bundled into .app - You can create a macOS .app bundle that contains Wine + the Windows program 2. Wineskin - A tool specifically for creating macOS .app bundles from Windows programs 3. Whisky - A modern GUI tool for running Windows apps on macOS using Wine 4. PlayOnMac - Another option 5. CrossOver - Commercial, but very polished The most straightforward way is probably using Wineskin or manually creating an .app bundle with Wine bundled inside.

for windows Use the PortableApps.com Launcher to wrap your app: 1. Download the PortableApps.com Launcher (https://portableapps.com/apps/development/portableapps.com_launcher) (free, open source) 2. Create a MyApp\App\AppInfo\appinfo.ini with app metadata 3. Place your .exe in MyApp\App\ 4. Run the Launcher's Generator.exe – it creates a MyAppPortable.exe 5. Package the whole MyApp\ folder – users just run MyAppPortable.exe
