What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-30, confidence not recorded
A Go library implementing the WhatsApp Web API via reverse engineering, providing connection, QR-code login, session restore, and message handlers. It is explicitly unmaintained and expected to break with WhatsApp multi-device updates.
Use cases
- send and receive whatsapp messages from go
- automate whatsapp web without official api
- build a whatsapp chatbot in go
- restore whatsapp sessions without rescanning qr code
- handle whatsapp media messages programmatically
When to avoid
- you need a maintained library - use tulir/whatsmeow instead
- you need WhatsApp multi-device support
- you are building anything production-facing
