Highball is a native macOS app and CLI for running Windows games on Apple Silicon. It assembles Wine engines from pinned upstream builds, sets up bottles, and supports renderer overlays for WineD3D, DXMT, D3DMetal, and DXVK; it can install Steam, connect an Epic library through Legendary, and switch renderers per bottle or launch. Its compatibility database records verified runs, per-game renderer verdicts, community reports, machine-derived predictions, provenance, and kernel-anti-cheat blocklist entries. Declarative JSON recipes describe installer, registry, Winetricks, synchronization, renderer, version-pinning, and note steps applied to bottles, while the CLI can submit game results to the open database. Highball requires Apple Silicon and macOS 14 or later. The app and CLI are licensed under GPL-3.0, while the recipes and compatibility database are CC0; D3DMetal is downloaded separately after acceptance of Apple's Game Porting Toolkit license. The project documents limitations with several Chromium-based launchers, Rockstar, Ubisoft Connect, GOG Galaxy, Battle.net, and the EA app.

Madeira is an open-source research project for running x86-64 Windows PC games on non-jailbroken iPhones. It combines ARM64EC Wine, FEX-Emu for x86-64-to-ARM64 translation, and DXMT for translating D3D11 to Metal, packaging them with wineserver as a thread inside a single Mach process on iOS. The project is sideloaded because it requires JIT with a debugger attached. It uses an Apple ID for signing; free-account provisioning profiles expire after seven days, requiring the app to be rebuilt and reinstalled, while the app container preserves prefixes and save data. The repository reports playable results for Thumper and ULTRAKILL, with other titles reaching gameplay with limitations, and describes the project as subject to rough edges, title-specific issues, and breaking changes. Madeira is licensed under GPL-3.0-or-later, with separate licensing terms for upstream components and project forks. It is built from several chains covering Wine, ARM64EC modules, FEX, DXMT, and the iOS application.

DroidDeck is an Android application that brings a SteamOS-like gaming interface to supported Adreno handhelds. It runs Valve's Steam client in Big Picture mode and uses ARM64 Proton to run Windows games; an optional Linux desktop provides Flatpak applications and games from Flathub, along with emulators. It requires Android 9 or newer and a supported Adreno device, does not require root, and is distributed as an APK with a separate Linux runtime. Compatibility and performance vary by device; desktop compositing uses software rendering, and Firefox sandboxing is reduced under proot. The project is licensed under GPL-3.0 and is not affiliated with Valve.

omarchy-apple-dev is an open-source toolchain for building and deploying iOS apps from Omarchy Linux on x86_64 or Apple Silicon PCs, without macOS or an installed copy of Xcode. It supports Swift, SwiftUI, and Flutter projects, using Swift, xtool, pymobiledevice3, Linux replacements for selected Xcode tools, and an iOS SDK extracted from Apple's Xcode distribution. Apps can be built and installed on a physical iPhone over USB; free Apple IDs are sufficient for device installs, while TestFlight and App Store distribution require a paid Apple Developer account and App Store Connect credentials. The repository includes scripts for installing the toolchain, pairing and launching apps with LLDB, adapting Xcode projects for xtool, signing and packaging applications as IPAs, validating bundles offline, and uploading builds to App Store Connect. Flutter support is limited to release builds, with no debug, hot reload, or simulator support. It is licensed under the MIT license.
