WeChat mini-program hardware framework WMPF has been launched, allowing mini-programs to run outside WeChat and on devices beyond smartphones, the WeChat team announced at the 2020 WeChat Open Class PRO event on January 9.
WeChat Mini-Program Framework, also known as WMPF, is a set of operating environments that allows hardware terminals to run WeChat mini-program without WeChat client.
The hardware developer only needs to access the SDK and APK of the mini-program hardware framework to run the mini-program smoothly on the hardware, the team said.
Most terminal devices rely on the environment model of Apps, and the development and operation costs are still relatively high. For hardware developers, the ability to service devices is always affected by both costs and technology.
WeChat mini-program has the advantages of low operating cost and convenient access to users. It is a good choice for developers. However, there are still some security risks in connecting mini-program to the third-party client App environment.
The WMPF inherits the rich WeChat mini-program ecosystem while retaining the ability to link WeChat users.
Whether it is education, shopping, entertainment, or smart home and office, hardware developers simply need to access the WeChat mini-program hardware framework SDK and APK to directly connect to WeChat mini-program for users. Provide a variety of services.
The WMPF software ecology is relatively standardized, easy to develop, and more flexible.
The equipment required to run the mini-program hardware framework, the minimum configuration is a quad-core 1.5GHz CPU, memory 1GB RAM + 4GB ROM, Android 5.0 and above.
The mini-program interactive solution firstly solves the threshold problem of accessing the mini-program service.
After the hardware developer accesses the WeChat mini-program hardware framework, it can be directly connected to the cloud and updated without the need to develop independent native applications.
For mini-program developers, cross-end operation can be achieved with one development.
At the same time, WeChat mini-program's rich application ecology has created more service capability access options for merchants, available on demand.
WeChat mini-program hardware framework WMPF has been opened for access. From now on, hardware developers can register on the "WeChat terminal cooperation platform (https://wecooper.weixin.qq.com/)", apply for the "mini-program hardware framework module", and access the mini-program hardware framework After binding the mini-program App ID, the mini-program hardware framework access operation can be completed.
As a device software developer, you need to register and apply for a data application on the WeChat open platform and adjust your own data application implemented in the original system; as a content-bearing mini-program developer, you need to go on the current mini-program Adjust your own code adaptation, target adaptation and other operations.
