## What it is
A packaging project that ports Deepin's WeChat Wine container (com.qq.weixin.deepin) to Arch Linux and derivatives, with custom run scripts and the official latest WeChat installer. It is distributed via the AUR as deepin-wine-wechat and built automatically with GitHub Actions.

## Use cases
- run WeChat on Arch Linux
- install WeChat via AUR on Arch-based distros
- use Deepin's Wine WeChat container outside Deepin
- run the Windows WeChat client on Linux with Wine
- get a maintained WeChat package for Manjaro or other Arch derivatives
- fix Chinese fonts, tray icons, and HiDPI issues for Wine WeChat

## When to choose
- You are on Arch Linux or a derivative and want a packaged, script-managed WeChat install
- You prefer the Deepin Wine container approach over configuring Wine manually
- You want automatic builds of the latest official WeChat installer as a pacman package

## When to avoid
- You are not on an Arch-based distribution
- You need a native Linux WeChat client or the official Linux WeChat build
- You require full compatibility with the newest WeChat versions, since some Win APIs may not be implemented in Wine
- You need a project with an explicit license or active feature development
