Clash Party

Clash Party is an open-source desktop GUI for the Mihomo (Clash Meta) core, serving as an alternative to proprietary VPN clients and other Clash-based dashboards. It provides a visual interface for managing network proxies, routing rules, and secure tunnels on desktop platforms via an Electron-based application. The software allows users to establish secure connections and bypass network restrictions by leveraging the underlying Mihomo core.

The software focuses on simplifying the configuration of the Mihomo core for users who prefer a graphical interface over manual command line interactions. It allows users to import subscription links, modify network settings, and manage traffic routing without the need to manually edit complex YAML files. It is designed for users who require a dedicated desktop environment to handle proxy configurations, protocol management, and traffic redirection across their local network.

Key features

• Built-in support for both Smart and Mihomo (Clash Meta) cores
• Smart Core rule overwriting for automatic node selection
• Tun mode implementation that works without requiring a separate service mode
• Integration with Sub-Store for subscription management
• Configuration backup and restoration via WebDAV
• Customization options for configuration files through an overwrite system
• Multiple selectable UI color themes
• Support for common Mihomo configuration modifications

The application integrates deeply with Sub-Store, which allows for more flexible management of proxy subscriptions and the filtering of node lists. Its architecture relies on the Electron framework to provide a consistent user interface across different operating systems, ensuring that the management of network cores remains accessible. The tool is primarily intended for advanced network users who need to manage multiple proxy protocols and routing rules through a centralized dashboard rather than through fragmented configuration files.

By utilizing a combination of the Smart core and the Mihomo core, the software provides a versatile environment for network tunneling. The inclusion of WebDAV support ensures that user configurations can be synchronized across different machines, while the Tun mode allows for system-wide proxying without the installation of complex kernel-level drivers. This makes the application suitable for users who frequently switch between different proxy providers or require specific routing logic for different applications.

Clash Party positions itself as a streamlined management layer for the Mihomo core, prioritizing ease of setup and visual configuration.
