Design

After learning from the failure of other Wechat modules, this project wants to do a better job in the following aspects:

• Stability: Most of those modules crashes for every Wechat update due to the obfuscator used by Wechat.
  • This project wraps each feature into a small "unit"; a single unit can crash safely without ruining the whole module.
  • This project has a set of APIs to analyze and match the signatures of critical classes / methods.
  • This project picks only the signatures that exist since Wechat 6.5.3. Even if a signature is broken in the coming Wechat updates, it can be fixed easily.
  • This project hooks the methods close to system components / platform tools. This sacrifices some speed but ensures some stable break points.
• Simplicity: Large modules like WeXposed have many functions that are hardly used by most of the users, but most of the crashes are caused by those functions.
  • If those functions are implemented by different modules, and the users can just install the modules as they need, then our lives would be much more easier.
  • This project aims to "help the users get the ultimate control of their messages and moments"; more specifically, it wants to help the users to prevent recalling / deleting, retransmit messages, retweet moments, etc.
  • However, in the meantime, this project is also an open-source template for Wechat modules. With current framework you can easily hook several critical operations in Wechat including UI updates, XML parsing, file I/O, encryption/decryption engine and database operations.
  • If you have developed something that is unrelated to current purpose of this project, you may still get a standalone branch for your contribution.
• Open Source: Closed-source will only ruin a non-profit project and its developer.
  • This project will stay open-source, everyone is more than welcome to submit pull requests. Just don't submit codes for illegal purpose.
  • If the Wechat team formally states that a specific feature has been misused for illegal purpose, it will be removed immediately.
