Paint.NET makes its way to Linux without Wine
Original: Paint.NET on Linux. How it started and how it’s going (also thanks the work I am doing for Office 365 under Wine) 😄 but
Developer Mirko Brombin is highlighting progress on bringing Microsoft's Paint.NET image editor to Linux. He traces how the effort started and where it stands now, noting the work draws on his contributions to running Office 365 under Wine, though this new approach does not rely on Wine itself. The project is being discussed in open source circles as another step toward narrowing the gap between Windows and Linux software.
Why now: The open source community is interested in Windows applications increasingly running natively on Linux without compatibility layers like Wine.
