Installing Microsoft Office in Linux

Step by step guide: How to install Microsoft Office in any Linux distribution

There are multiple options how to install MS Office on Linux.

VM-based - Integrate Windows apps running in a Windows virtual machine as native-looking in Linux

  1. Winapps, based on KVM, QEMU, Docker/Podman and FreeRDP. Still actively maintained (getting Github commits). Decribed below
  2. LinOffice - Microsoft Office Launcher for Linux, my own fork of Winapps which is focused on only running Microsoft Office, with some Office-specific improvements over Winapps and a fully automated setup. Eventually I would like to create a GUI for it. Decribed below
  3. Cassowary, based on KVM, QEMU, libvirt/virt-manager, and FreeRDP. Last release in Feb 2022 and seems to be abandoned.

How to use a shared library written in C from a program written in Rust. ( rust version 0.7. \ host: i686-unknown-linux-gnu ).

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
# alternatively put the .so generated after running make someplace where the system will find it
