Bottles is a GTK4/Linux application for managing Wine prefixes so users can run Windows software and games on Linux. It provides a friendly GUI for creating isolated environments with runners like Wine and Proton, plus tools like DXVK.

Use cases

  • run windows games on linux
  • manage wine prefixes
  • install windows software on linux
  • use proton outside steam
  • isolate wine environments per application
  • apply dxvk to wine prefixes

When to choose

  • you want a GUI instead of manual winecfg/prefix commands
  • you need multiple isolated Wine environments with different runners
  • you want easy DXVK/Proton runner management on Linux

When to avoid

  • you are on Windows or macOS
  • you need a headless/CLI-only Wine setup
  • you only run Steam games and Proton via Steam suffices
