## What it is
A git mirror of the World of Warcraft user interface source code, organized into branches for live, PTR, PTR2, and beta clients. It serves as a reference for developers inspecting or building WoW addons.

## Use cases
- browse WoW UI source code for addon development
- diff UI changes between live and PTR patches
- find API usage examples in Blizzard's Lua code
- research how Blizzard implements game interface features
- keep a local copy of WoW interface code for offline reference

## When to choose
- you develop World of Warcraft addons and need the official UI source
- you want to track interface changes across game patches
- you need reference implementations of Blizzard's Lua APIs

## When to avoid
- you need a runnable application or library rather than source code reference
- you are not working with World of Warcraft
- you need a project with an explicit license for redistribution

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, documentation
- domain: gaming-tools
- platform: cross-platform
