'''Linux''' is a family of operating systems based on the [[wikipedia:Linux kernel|Linux kernel]]. Operating systems using the Linux kernel are commonly called Linux distributions (distro).
;Emulators on Linux
Due to the overlap with the technical and open source communities, the majority of emulators in existence will have Linux versions available. The commercial success of the [[wikipedia:Steam Deck|Steam Deck]] has also contributed heavily to consumer demand for native emulators on Linux.
;Before diving in;;*If you're on a Steam Deck, you should probably use [https://www.emudeck.com/ EmuDeck] which is an installation script that helps you get started with emulation. It is not an all in one solution like some other software; instead, it strives to provide the best possible official options to you, set up and ready to go. '''View ;*See the [[Linux guide for emulators]] for Distro specific instructions;*See the [[Recommended Linux distros|Recommended Linux distributions]].;*See each Wiki Category [[:Category:Consoles|Consoles]], [[:Category:Computers|Computers]] and [[:Category:Arcade|Arcade]] for individual dedicated system pages to see more detailed comparisons and information about software emulators. Dedicated system pages provide more up-to-date listings and in-depth information on specific aspects like hardware features, peripheral support, and compatibility etc.;*Some games have [[Game engine recreations and source ports]] that run on Linux, which can be the better than emulators for their specific games.'''
