Conty is an unprivileged Linux container packed into a single portable executable, based on Arch Linux and compressed with squashfs or dwarfs. It bundles gaming and Wine-related tools like Steam, Lutris, Bottles, and Wine-Proton-GE, and runs on most Linux distros without root rights.

Use cases

  • run Linux games and applications in a portable container without installing anything
  • run Wine and Proton games on any Linux distro without root
  • use Steam, Lutris, or Bottles on a Steam Deck or old distro
  • run 32-bit applications on a pure 64-bit Linux system
  • carry a full Linux app environment on a USB stick
  • sandbox applications with filesystem and X11 isolation
  • try modern software on distros with outdated or no glibc

When to choose

  • you need a zero-install, portable, single-file Linux container
  • you want to run games or Wine apps on unsupported or old distros
  • you lack root privileges on the host system
  • you use a Steam Deck or mixed-glibc environments like Alpine or Void

When to avoid

  • you need lightweight, minimal containers with custom images (use Docker or Podman)
  • you need orchestration, networking, or multi-container deployments
  • you require strict security isolation for untrusted workloads
