Reshaping the
Industry Standard

Modern Workstation — Intelligent Routing
Intelligent Rule-based Routing

Features a powerful Rule Providers engine for precise traffic routing based on domains, GeoIP, CIDR, and process names. Separate local and international traffic to boost speeds for a zero-perception experience.

01

Seamless Multi-protocol Compatibility

Native support for all major protocols: Shadowsocks (SS), ShadowsocksR (SSR), VMess (V2ray), Trojan, and Snell. A single Clash core handles all network encryption needs.

02

Extreme Core Performance

Built purely in Go for minimal memory and resource usage with high concurrent connection handling. Smooth performance even on low-power soft routers and legacy PCs.

03

End-to-end Security & Encryption

Supports MITM for deep traffic analysis and debugging. Encrypted tunnels effectively resist sniffing and DNS poisoning, ensuring your privacy in complex public Wi-Fi environments.

Configuration Standard

The Art of
Declarative YAML Config

Clash replaces complex GUI configs with human- and machine-friendly YAML. It's incredibly flexible and easy to manage with version control like Git.

  • Proxy Groups: Supports nesting, auto-speedtest (url-test), and fallback for complex, high-availability routing.
  • Rule Providers: Dynamically load and update routing rules from remote URLs to keep your core config lightweight.
  • External Controller (RESTful API): Built-in HTTP API for third-party dashboards (e.g., Yacd) to manage nodes and monitor traffic in real-time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked
Questions about Clash

Is the Clash client free?

Yes. The Clash core is open-source under GPL-3.0 on GitHub. Major community-maintained GUI clients (e.g., Clash Verge Rev, FlClash, CMFA) are also free to use with no fees.

Does Clash provide proxy nodes?

No. Clash is a local tool/client (the player). It does not provide servers or network services (the media). You must provide your own subscription link or YAML config from a third-party provider to connect.

What are the advantages over V2rayN or Shadowsocks clients?

The biggest advantage is the Rule-based Proxy system. Legacy tools often only support 'Global' or simple 'PAC' lists. Clash uses GeoIP and custom rules to route specific apps or domains precisely, offering unmatched flexibility.

How to update Clash subscriptions?

In most GUI clients, go to 'Profiles', enter your provider's URL, and click 'Update' or 'Download'. We recommend enabling 'Auto-update' for the latest node status.

Clash Meta (mihomo) vs. original Clash: Which one?

Clash Meta (now mihomo) is a community-driven enhanced branch. It adds support for VLESS, Reality, Hysteria 2, and TUIC, with superior routing. Most modern clients like Clash Verge Rev use it by default. We recommend new users choose Meta-based clients for the best experience.

How to install and set up Clash on Windows?

1) Download the `.exe` for Clash Verge Rev. 2) Install and run. 3) Go to 'Profiles', paste your subscription link, and click 'Download'. 4) Activate the profile and pick a node in 'Proxies'. 5) Toggle 'System Proxy' ON to access Google, YouTube, and GitHub.

Is Clash safe? Any risks of backdoors or privacy leaks?

Clash core and clients are open-source on GitHub for public audit. Security is guaranteed if you download from our site or official repos. Avoid untrusted sources to prevent malware-infected clones.

From developers to e-commerce teams, Clash is the most trusted proxy solution for privacy and performance.

Switching from V2rayN to Clash was a game-changer. One YAML config handles everything: direct for local, proxy for global, and specific nodes for Netflix. No more manual switching.

Fake-IP mode solved my DNS leak issues once and for all. I no longer worry about ISPs logging my DNS queries on public Wi-Fi. It's the ultimate solution for digital privacy.
