Wine is a free and open source software application that aims to allow computer programs written for Microsoft Windows to run on Unix-like operating systems like Ubuntu.

Wine is a compatibility layer. It duplicates functions of a Windows computer by providing alternative implementations of the DLLs that Windows programs call, and a process to substitute for the Windows NT kernel. This method of duplication differs from other methods that might also be considered emulation, where Windows programs run in a virtual machine.
