Why choose whatstk?¶
There are many python libraries to deal with WhatsApp and other platform chat files. Why should you choose whatstk over these?
Automatic parser¶
In WhatsApp, the chat might be exported in different formats depending on your phone
configuration, which adds complexity when parsing the chat. whatstk incorporates a reliable and powerful
parser
to correctly infer the structure of most of the chats. In the rare and
improbable case that the automatic parser does not work for a certain chat, you can still use
hformat.
The power of pandas and plotly¶
whatstk uses well established and mantained python libraries pandas to process the data and plotly and exploits their potential to efficiently process and create figures.
Open source and Community oriented¶
