Coming soon / planned. Virtual machines and containers will be first-class Machine kinds. This is not the on-device shell and not Wasm Runtime packages.
Read Mode A and Mode B first (App Store vs TrollStore vs Sileo).
iOS / iPadOS / visionOS
| Channel | Engine |
|---|---|
| App Store (Mode A) | Jitless QEMU-TCTI / TCG interpreter for VMs; containers run inside that VM after OCI pull |
| TrollStore (JIT IPA) | JIT QEMU/UTM for VMs and containers (Wasm JIT allowed). Not Desktop/Swinging Bridge by itself |
| Sileo (repo.wawona.io) | Same JIT engines plus Desktop, LockScreen, and Swinging Bridge Mode B out of the box |
Mode B is never shipped inside the App Store app. Store / TestFlight copy must not mention jailbreak, TrollStore, or JIT. This page may.
Platforms
| Platform | Gate | Path |

| iOS / iPadOS / visionOS | planned | Mode A jitless / Mode B JIT (above) |
| Android | planned | QEMU + KVM when available, else TCG+JIT (wwn-vms / wwn-containers) |
| Linux | planned | Same |
| tvOS / watchOS | forbidden | Native + remote only |
