## What it is
A collection of C headers for private frameworks and undocumented interfaces of iPhoneOS 3.x and earlier, used for jailbroken iOS tweak development. The repository is deprecated and no longer maintained.

## Use cases
- develop jailbroken iOS tweaks against private frameworks
- call undocumented iPhoneOS APIs from C or Objective-C
- inspect private framework interfaces of old iOS versions
- reverse engineer iPhoneOS 3.x system frameworks

## When to choose
- you are targeting iPhoneOS 3.x or earlier on a jailbroken device
- you need historical headers for private iOS frameworks

## When to avoid
- you target iOS 4.x or newer
- you need maintained or supported headers - use rpetrich/iphoneheaders instead
- you develop App Store apps that must use only public APIs

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: sdk, reverse-engineering
- domain: apple-ecosystem, developer-tools, reverse-engineering
- platform: c
- tags: ios, private-frameworks, headers, jailbreak, tweaks, undocumented-apis
