## What it is
A Python framework for building WhatsApp bots on top of the yowsup library, with a modular architecture and built-in human-behavior simulation. It is unofficial and no longer functional since WhatsApp blocks numbers used with it; the author recommends the successor project sulla.

## Use cases
- build a whatsapp bot in python
- auto-reply to whatsapp messages
- send whatsapp images and videos programmatically
- create custom whatsapp bot modules
- automate whatsapp messaging

## When to choose
- you need a modular python framework for a legacy yowsup-based whatsapp bot
- you want a simple example of modular bot architecture

## When to avoid
- you need a working whatsapp integration today - whatsapp blocks numbers used with it
- you need official API support or a maintained project
- you need a license for commercial use

## Facets
- artifact type: framework
- maturity: abandoned
- function: chatbot, sdk, middleware
- domain: messaging-platforms, chatbots
- platform: python
- tags: whatsapp, whatsapp-bot, yowsup, bot-framework, unofficial-api, automation, linux, macos
