What is it?

"In software development, obfuscation is the act of creating source or machine code that is difficult for humans or computers to understand." - Wikipedia

In other words, obfuscating your Lua will make it much harder for anyone to understand what it is doing while the computer process (in our case, Wow) is still able to execute

But, why?

Your code runs on the client-side and is susceptible to attacks such as memory dumping and reverse engineering.

Wow prohibits closed-source AddOns, and thus pre-compiled Lua scripts are not permitted. Only Lua scripts in text format are allowed to be loaded. As a result, it is simple for Lua scripts to be intercepted or extracted.

To increase the security of your scripts against these vulnerabilities, we offer an optional built-in obfuscator.

How to use

It is easy, flip the box!
