Wonderfully crazy. Does it only work on Windows?

As written it would only work on Windows but in principle it should be achievable on all platforms

It runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Not by calling VirtualAlloc and friends, though. At least that part of the code has to be rewritten per platform.

I know that .NET is cross-platform, that was not my point. I'm referring to the parts where the article specifically mentions Windows API. How do I do the same on macOS and Linux? Is it even possible?

I don't see anything that doesn't have mac/Linux analogues but it would definitely require a concerted effort.
