Articulate Storyline on Linux

The short answer is: you can't. Storyline 2 is a Windows-only product and will only run on Windows.

But there are ways of running Windows programs on Linux and they are outlined here.

I suspect you'll have the most luck with a dual boot system or virtual machine. I find it unlikely that Wine or similar solutions will work.

Hi Daniela,

You can read more about the system requirements for Storyline here. 

Hi Ashley

Can courses work on Linux System?

Thanks

Hey Colin - I'm not sure if you are referring to authoring or viewing courses, but all requirements can be found in the link Ashley shared above. I'll re-link here.

I'm not familiar with Linux, but you would need Windows to author. 

Hi Leslie,

It would be just to view courses not for authoring so I am not sure if SL2 is compatible to view on Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial  ?
Thanks

Colin

More and more, I find that I wish developers would port their software to Linux. More and more people are getting frustrated with MS and Apple, and looking for alternatives. I now have several Linux boxes, and wish I could port more of my favorite software packages to them.

Colin,

 SL2 courses default to depending on flash, so if you have an internet-capable browser that can display flash content, you are all right. SL3 and 360 are supposed to be able to create content that is 100% flash free (dependent on HTML5), but results are mixed.
