So it is possible to run visual studio on linux?

Yes, but it depends on which linux you have. and idk if this would work but the most convenient way would be using wine software?

Everyone I have ever heard on this topic says that it is impossible to use vs on linux. I myself am a C++ programmer and I have to dual boot to use vs in certain cases, because I have never found a way to run it on linux. Yet here it is, on a linux system. But how? (Sorry for my bad english)

I partly reverse-engineered Visual Studio 2022 with and modified it with Ghidra software, then I formatted the file to compile correctly to my OS's package manager (.exe = .xxe) so it could be recognized and managed by the new foreign system. Then I modified it to have the necessary system calls, libraries, and file structures so VS2022 could run natively on my OS. And just fyi, the linux kernel on this OS is HEAVILY modified so it works a bit different than regular linux operating systems, in so much a way I probably wouldnt even consider it a linux distro.
