It’s literally a fork of wine.
But from a practical perspective, you tell steam to start the game and it starts it, installing and using proton as necessary. If the developers haven’t configured it you have to first click a button in preferences that says “use proton” (paraphrased), but that’s it.
Also Steam can be configured to use Proton by default for non-native games :3
