Thunderbrew is a non-commercial and open-source game preservation project for World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King.

Thunderbrew was started as a fork of [[Whoa]]. Like Whoa, it aims to provide a <strong>faithful, fully-functional, free and open source</strong> version of the [[WoW:3.3.5a|3.3.5a client]].

It aims to provide a more easily accessible and feature-rich version of Whoa, while retaining its original mission of high code quality and adherence to original behavior. In addition, Thunderbrew provides various useful tools to aid in the process of constructing Whoa.

== Libraries ==

Following Whoa, Thunderbrew depends on a few libraries, created with the same practices as the main application:
