Introduction

This documentation set introduces the Chimera proxy ecosystem, focusing on the projects that are visible in the local workspace:

  • Chimera_Client: a Rust client core based on the clash-rs architecture and aimed at Clash/Mihomo-compatible configuration behavior.
  • Chimera: a Tauri + React desktop application that manages profiles, core binaries, runtime configuration, system proxy integration, service mode, and updates.
  • Chimera_Server: a Rust server core that tracks xray-core-style inbound configuration and protocol behavior.
  • AChimera: an adjacent Android-oriented project whose relationship to this documentation set still needs a dedicated page.

Each module targets a different layer of the overall stack, but they share a common goal: making proxy configuration, operation, and development easier to reason about under diverse network conditions.

In addition, the documentation for each project is generally divided into two major parts: one is a configuration guide for general users, intended for quick onboarding and day-to-day usage; the other is an advanced reference for developers, intended to help them understand implementation details, extension capabilities, and support further development.
