Wine is a compatibility layer that allows Windows programs to run on other operating systems, such as Linux or macOS. In this case, you'll find the version of this program designed to be used on Apple computers.

This compatibility layer is capable of porting Windows source code to Unix-based operating systems thanks to the set of tools it includes. This way, you can perform real-time executions without modifying programs by translating Windows API elements to POSIX API elements. This recreates the necessary Windows structure and libraries.

Because of the way it works, Wine doesn't count as an emulator. An emulator virtualizes or emulates code that is usually designed for another processor.

A large percentage of people who use macOS or Linux on their computers use Wine to run programs that aren't available for their operating system. Although there are usually alternatives made for these systems, sometimes it's necessary to use a program that's only available for Windows.

Not all Windows programs are compatible with Wine, and, in fact, there are some that only work with older versions. Therefore, it should be noted that some programs may cause errors.
