I have a software that can only run on a Raspberry Pi, and I wanted to see if it works since it's never been tested. I tried running it on virtual machines like VMware and Virtual Box, but it didn't work due to processor architecture issues. It also doesn't work on a Raspberry Pi desktop. If the software works, I'll consider getting a Raspberry Pi.

Most user software is dependent on the operating system. All versions of Raspberry Pi are built around various versions of ARM microprocessors. The most common operating system for the Raspberry Pi is Raspberry Pi OS which is a Debian-based Linux distro optimized for Raspberry Pi hardware.

Have you tried running this software on a Linux platform, either real or virtual?

You say you've tried running this software on a "Raspberry Pi desktop". Was that real or virtual? If real, what version of Raspberry Pi and what version of the OS?

Hi, thanks for your reply. I've tested it on virtual machines running Windows and Quemu. It's Debian Linux 5.10.0-15-amd64.
