Dedicated to creating the best open-source proxy tool for Mac users
The ClashX project began in 2018, driven by a group of developers seeking a better macOS proxy tool. At that time, proxy tools on the market were either overly complex or had outdated interfaces that didn't match macOS design language. We decided to create a solution that was both powerful and elegant.
After years of continuous development and community contributions, ClashX has become one of the most popular open-source proxy tools on the macOS platform, with over 500,000 downloads and 30,000 GitHub Stars. We are proud to serve so many users worldwide.
Our mission is simple: Make network proxy management easy for every Mac user.
We believe powerful tools shouldn't be complicated. Through intuitive interface design and comprehensive documentation, we enable beginners to get started quickly while providing advanced users with rich customization options.
