# FAQ
##### Q: Can it be ported to other OS like Linux?
A: Notthing is impossible, but it's not easy as long as Microsoft not supporting WinForm for other platforms, making .NET Core useless, unlike Java FX that supports other platforms since decades. If you know, feel free to open an issue. Until then, use [WineHQ](https://www.winehq.org/) or similar to run exe
##### Can it be ported to macOS or Linux?
Microsoft has not made it easy to port, and .NET Core remains impractical for this purpose. While I could use Avalonia UI as an alternative, I currently dont have the time to port the entire project. Pull requests are welcome!
