Understanding WapiKit, Wapi.js, and Wapi.go

What is WapiKit?

WapiKit is an open-source, self-hosting enabled contact list manager with marketing campaign management and chat dashboard management capabilities. Designed to streamline the complexities of communication management, WapiKit empowers developers with tools to build efficient and effective communication solutions. Whether you are developing a bot, managing a marketing campaign, or overseeing customer interactions, WapiKit provides a comprehensive suite of tools to support your needs.

Introducing Wapi.js and Wapi.go

To facilitate the integration of WhatsApp Business API into your applications, we offer two specialized SDKs: Wapi.js and Wapi.go. These SDKs are designed specifically to simplify the process of working with WhatsApp API products.

  1. Wapi.js:

    • Platform: Node.js

    • Documentation: javascript.wapikit.com

    • Purpose: Wapi.js simplifies the process of working with the WhatsApp Business API by abstracting away the complexities of API payloads. This SDK is designed to help developers quickly build and deploy WhatsApp-based applications using JavaScript or TypeScript.

    • Key Features:

      • Object-Oriented Architecture

      • Single Client Model

      • Simplified message sending

      • Event listener for notifications

      • Media upload support

      • Reply and react to incoming messages

    • Installation:

      shCopy codenpm install @wapijs/wapi.js yarn add @wapijs/wapi.js pnpm install @wapijs/wapi.js

    • Usage: Wapi.js provides an intuitive way to start developing WhatsApp applications, with clear documentation, starter templates, and example chatbots.

  2. Wapi.go:

    • Platform: Golang

    • Documentation: golang.wapikit.com

    • Purpose: Wapi.go offers a similar set of functionalities as Wapi.js but tailored for the Golang ecosystem. It supports developers who prefer Golang for backend development, ensuring they have the tools needed to integrate WhatsApp Business API seamlessly.

    • Key Features:

      • Supports multiple phone number messaging clients

      • Simplified message sending

      • Event listener for notifications

      • Management of phone numbers and messaging templates

      • Media upload support

      • Reply and react to incoming messages

    • Installation:

      shCopy codego get github.com/sarthakjdev/wapi.go

    • Usage: Wapi.go provides easy integration with existing Golang applications, including example usage and clear documentation to help developers get started.

What actually is WapiKit then?

WapiKit is an open-source product designed to streamline contact list management, marketing campaign management, and chat dashboard management. Unlike Wapi.js and Wapi.go, which are SDKs specifically for integrating WhatsApp API products, WapiKit offers a full-stack solution that can be self-hosted and customized to fit various business needs.

Key Features of WapiKit:

  • Contact List Management: Efficiently manage and organize your contact lists to ensure effective communication.

  • Marketing Campaign Management: Create, execute, and track marketing campaigns seamlessly.

Why WapiKit?

  • Self-Hosting Enabled: Host WapiKit on your own servers for greater control and customization.

  • Open-Source: Leverage the flexibility of open-source software to tailor WapiKit to your specific requirements.

  • Developer-Friendly: With robust documentation and community support, WapiKit is designed to be easy for developers to integrate and extend.

How does WapiKit relate to Wapi.js and Wapi.go? While Wapi.js and Wapi.go are SDKs to facilitate the integration of WhatsApp API products, WapiKit is a comprehensive product that may utilize these SDKs for underlying functionalities. As WapiKit evolves, it could offer its own APIs, and developers might build SDKs specifically for WapiKit’s APIs, further distinguishing it from the current Wapi.js and Wapi.go SDKs.
