What is Cassowary?

With Cassowary you can run a Windows virtual machine and use Windows applications on Linux as if they were native applications, built upon FreeRDP and remote apps technology.

Cassowary supports:

  • Running Windows applications as if they were native applications
  • Opening files from a Linux host directly inside Windows applications
  • Using Linux apps to open files that are on a Windows VM
  • Allowing easy access between both the guest and host filesystems
  • An easy-to-use configuration utility
  • Creating an application launcher for Windows application
  • Automatically suspending the VM when no Windows application is in use and automatically resuming it when required (virt-manager only)
