APPENDIX / PART-AB01

About This Site

This is the appendix at the back of the manual: what this site is, where the content comes from, and the rules we maintain it by. About a minute to read—faster than assembling furniture.

What This Site Is

A visual Clash manual for beginners: client downloads, subscription import, proxy modes, and rule-based routing, broken down step by step.
One goal: follow along, get online in ten minutes, no need to learn protocol theory first.
The download page rounds up available clients for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, and Linux, with picks for each platform.

The Clash Ecosystem in One Breath

"Clash" started as an open-source proxy core. After the original author stopped maintaining it, the community fork Clash Meta took over and was later renamed mihomo, now the leading actively maintained core.
The apps you actually open—Clash Verge Rev, FlClash, Clash Plus, and the like—are GUI clients built on top of the core: the core does the heavy lifting, the client saves you from typing commands.
Tutorials on this site are written for clients built on the mihomo core by default; differences with legacy cores are called out separately in the text.

Content Maintenance Policy

Every download channel is source-checked before it goes live, and links are checked on a regular basis—dead links come down immediately.
Tutorial steps are run through on real devices on the matching platform before publishing, so screenshots and instructions actually match.
When a client stops getting updates or overhauls its UI, the article gets revised to match; anything that turns out wrong gets rewritten from the step where it broke.
If something's unclear, check the FAQ first—most snags have already been hit and answered; for hands-on issues, see the setup guides.
