README
# frida-core
Frida core library intended for static linking into bindings.
- Lets you inject your own JavaScript instrumentation code into other processes,
optionally with your own [C code][] for performance-sensitive bits.
- Acts as a logistics layer that packages up [GumJS][] into a shared library.
- Provides a two-way communication channel for talking to your scripts,
if needed, and later unload them.
- Also lets you enumerate installed apps, running processes, and connected
devices.
- Written in [Vala][], with OS-specific glue code in C/Objective-C/asm.
## Binaries
Typically used through one of the available language bindings:
- [Python][]
- [Node.js][]
- [.NET][]
- [Swift][]
- [Qml][]
E.g.:
```console
$ pip install frida-tools # CLI tools
$ pip install frida # Python bindings
$ npm install frida # Node.js bindings
```
Or, for static linking into your own project written in a C-compatible language,
download a devkit from the Frida [releases][] page.
