## What it is
rhwp is an open-source HWP/HWPX (Korean Hangul word processor format) viewer and editor built with Rust and WebAssembly. It runs in the browser, as a VS Code extension, and as browser extensions, letting users open, render, and edit Hangul documents without installing proprietary software.

## Use cases
- open hwp files without installing hangul
- view hwpx documents in the browser
- edit korean hwp documents for free
- preview hwp files in vs code
- convert closed korean document format to readable content
- render hwp paragraphs tables and images in web apps

## When to choose
- you need to read or edit HWP/HWPX files on any platform without Hangul Office
- you want a browser-based or VS Code-based HWP viewer
- you need an open-source, MIT-licensed alternative to proprietary Korean word processors

## When to avoid
- you need full fidelity with all legacy HWP features or complex layout for production documents
- you need a mature v1.0 typesetting engine (project is pre-1.0)
- you work exclusively with DOCX/PDF formats

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: pdf-viewer, parser, editor, wasm
- domain: files, cross-platform, developer-tools
