## What it is
An open-source Objective-C demo app for iOS that replicates core features of Douyin (TikTok), including a profile page, a swipeable short-video feed with AVPlayer, and WebSocket-based IM chat. It is primarily an educational project with detailed documentation explaining the implementation principles of each feature.

## Use cases
- build a tiktok-style short video feed on ios
- learn how to stream and cache video with avplayer
- implement websocket-based instant messaging in objective-c
- parse animated webp images with nsoperationqueue
- study how a real short-video app's api and ui work
- learn two-level caching for network resources on ios

## When to choose
- you want a reference implementation of a douyin/tiktok-like ios app in objective-c
- you are learning avplayer video streaming, webp decoding, or websocket chat on ios
- you need well-documented example code for complex ios ui and gesture handling

## When to avoid
- you need a production-ready or maintained app - the demo targets iOS 8-12 and has not been updated since 2023
- you prefer Swift - use the author's Swift version instead
- you need full Douyin functionality such as publishing, accounts, or recommendations
