Linux
Linux is an open-source Unix-like operating system based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991, by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged as a Linux distribution.
Linux makes it easy for developers to deliver apps and easy for users to install those applications. It surprises many people, but Linux can run many Windows applications as if they were native apps. You shouldn’t expect a Windows application to be executable on Linux.
