Works by running a small program in the background that creates a [named pipe](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/ipc/named-pipes) `\\.\pipe\discord-ipc-0` inside the prefix and forwards all data to the pipe `/run/user/1000/discord-ipc-0`.

This bridge takes advantage of the Windows service implementation in Wine, eliminating the need to run it manually.

These docs are for the latest stable release.  
For v1.0, see [the original README](https://github.com/EnderIce2/rpc-bridge/blob/v1.0/README.md).
