+# Wine
+Wine is a tool that allows windows programs to be run on Linux. 
+
+It is worth noting that Wine does not use virtualization, it directly translates the calls a program is normally making to the Windows kernel into the language understood by the Linux kernel, and vice versa.
+
+## Install 
+Note: The wine package is not required by [Bottles](#bottles) as it has its own versions of Wine, but **if you're not installing the flatpak version**, I **recommend** installing it as it gives access to the latest version of Wine to Bottles.
+
+### Arch-Based
+```sh
+sudo pacman -S wine
+```
+
+### Debian/Mint/Ubuntu 
+As noted above, since bottles will be installed through flatpak there is no use in installing Wine here for bottles.
+```sh
+sudo apt install wine
+```
+
+### Fedora
+```sh
+sudo dnf install wine
+```
+
+# Bottles
+There are a number of programs to manage Wine programs, personally I have found Bottles to be the best experience and what I am recommending here.
+
+## Install
+Bottles is packaged on some distributions and is also available as a [Flatpak](Flatpak.md).
+
+You should be able to install bottles through whatever graphical software manager/store is on your system. 
+
+If that is not available or you just want to install via command-line, see below:
+
+### Flatpak (universal)
+```sh
+flatpak install com.usebottles.bottles
+```
+
+### Arch-Based (AUR Package)
+```sh 
+yay -S bottles
+```
+
+### Debian/Mint/Ubuntu
+Bottles is not packaged, use the Flatpak.
+
+### Fedora
+```sh
+sudo dnf install bottles
+```
+
