Whisky 🥃

Wine but a bit stronger

Familiar UI that integrates seamlessly with macOS

One-click bottle creation and management

Debug and profile with ease

Whisky provides a clean and easy to use graphical wrapper for Wine built in native SwiftUI. You can make and manage bottles, install and run Windows apps and games, and unlock the full potential of your Mac with no technical knowledge required. Whisky is built on top of CrossOver 22.1.1, and Apple's own Game Porting Toolkit.

Special thanks to Gcenx, without your amazing work Whisky wouldn't be possible.

FAQ

Do I need macOS Sonoma?

Yes, you do.

Do I need to pay for the macOS beta?

No, you do not, just log into the Apple developer website, and the download should appear in settings.

The direct download link for the toolkit doesn't work

Make sure you're logged in to the Apple Developer website. If it still won't work use an indirect link.

Do I need to follow the steps in the toolkit's README?

No, you don't, in fact you shouldn't follow them.

macOS says Whisky is damaged and can't be opened

Run xattr -d com.apple.quarantine path-to-whisky

Whisky isn't displaying anything

There is an issue where the libraries for font rendering are not properly bundled yet. You will need to install freetype.

Open an x86 terminal session with arch -x86_64 zsh
Install brew /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" (If you run into issues, let me know)
Install freetype /usr/local/bin/brew install freetype
Restart Whisky and remake the bottle
