## What it is
Happ is a cross-platform proxy utility client with desktop builds for Windows, macOS, and Linux, alongside iOS and Android apps. It lets users connect to proxy servers to route and secure their internet traffic.

## Use cases
- connect to a proxy server on windows
- vpn-like proxy client for macos
- bypass internet censorship
- route traffic through a proxy on linux
- desktop app to manage proxy connections

## When to choose
- you need a ready-to-use desktop proxy client for Windows, macOS, or Linux
- you want a GUI utility rather than a CLI proxy tool
- you need cross-platform proxy apps across desktop and mobile

## When to avoid
- you need a proxy server implementation rather than a client
- you require a fully audited open-source VPN solution - licensing details are unclear
- you only need command-line proxy tooling
