## What it is
WPPConnect is a Node.js/TypeScript library that exports WhatsApp Web functionality via Puppeteer, enabling message sending, session management, contact/group access, and bot building. The ecosystem also includes WPPConnect Server, a ready-to-use REST API with webhooks built on top of the library.

## Use cases
- send whatsapp messages from nodejs
- build a whatsapp chatbot
- whatsapp customer service automation
- send media and documents via whatsapp api
- manage multiple whatsapp sessions
- expose whatsapp as a rest api with webhooks
- receive and reply to whatsapp messages programmatically

## When to choose
- you need programmatic WhatsApp automation in Node.js without the official Business API
- you want a self-hosted REST server with webhooks for WhatsApp sessions
- you need multi-session support and media sending (text, image, video, audio, docs, stickers)

## When to avoid
- you require an officially supported, ToS-compliant WhatsApp integration for production at scale
- you are not using JavaScript/Node.js or a compatible ecosystem
- you cannot tolerate breakage from unofficial WhatsApp Web changes

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: http-server, webhook, chatbot, workflow-automation, sdk
- domain: messaging-platforms, chatbots, developer-tools, apis
- platform: cross-platform
