WeChat opens 11 types of interfaces: developers can build real web applications based on WeChat

Although WeChat official accounts are also a content carrier, many things cannot be done with official accounts due to their deep entry and their own functional limitations. If you have a good idea before, but cannot realize it due to the limitations of WeChat interface, then you may try WeChat's newly launched web development toolkit - WeChat JS-SDK.

According to WeChat, through the 11 types of interface sets provided by WeChat JS-SDK, developers can not only use WeChat's basic capabilities such as taking pictures, selecting pictures, voice, and location on the web page, but also directly use WeChat's unique capabilities such as WeChat sharing, scanning, cards and coupons, and payment, providing WeChat users with a better web experience.

This means that you can build a real web application on the WeChat platform, and this web application can also call WeChat's photo taking, picture selection, voice, location, scan, card coupons, payment, sharing and other functions. In the past, if you directly made an HTML5 application, you might be able to call some mobile phone hardware capabilities, but this might still encounter different problems on different models. With WeChat JS-SDK, developers can directly use WeChat's unified function interface, and most of the adaptation work can be done by WeChat. WeChat has become an application hosting platform on the operating system.

In fact, similar web applications should have been used by everyone on some browsers at home and abroad. For example, UC and Firefox have built web application hosting services based on browsers. On the Android version of Firefox browser, users can visit Firefox Marketplace to download applications and display them on the mobile phone desktop like local applications. However, when WeChat, which has a huge number of users and social relationships, does this, new ways of playing can appear in many places.

For users who want to experience these features, WeChat also provides a Demo page. You can open this URL in WeChat to experience the features mentioned above.
