wtf is wechat-miniprogram-demos?

This repository is a collection of sample projects that go along with a beginner's guide to building WeChat mini-programs. WeChat mini-programs are small apps that run inside the WeChat messaging platform (popular in China and among Chinese-speaking communities) without requiring a separate download, think of them like Progressive Web Apps, but built specifically for WeChat. The repository contains working code examples organized to match four tutorial lessons. The first covers the basics: how to set up your first mini-program and get it running. The second focuses on styling and making your app look good. The third teaches you the actual programming logic, how to make things happen when users interact with your app. The fourth shows you how to use WeChat's built-in features, like accessing the camera, getting location data, or sending notifications. Rather than just reading instructions, you can download these examples and run them locally or test them in WeChat's official development environment. This learn-by-doing approach is especially helpful for beginners who want to see working code rather than just descriptions. Each example is designed to be simple enough to understand but complete enough to actually use. This would be useful for anyone wanting to build apps for WeChat's ecosystem, whether you're a founder launching a service for Chinese users, a freelancer building client projects, or a developer exploring a new platform. WeChat mini-programs are a major platform in Asia with millions of active users, so learning to build for them opens up a real business opportunity. The tutorials are written by Ruan Yifeng, a well-known technical educator, so the explanations are designed to be clear for people new to this specific technology.
