# 🧩 ShaguTweaks Extras — ClassicAPI
A complementary fork of [ShaguTweaks-extras](https://github.com/paokkerkir/ShaguTweaks-extras) for **ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI** and **Turtle WoW-like servers**.
Focused on **stability, compatibility and performance** while keeping the original ShaguTweaks Extras experience.
> This fork is designed to be used with [ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI](https://github.com/Dusk-92/ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI).
## 🔌 Requirements
- **[ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI](https://github.com/Dusk-92/ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI) — required**
- **[ClassicAPI](https://github.com/brues-code/ClassicAPI) — required through ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI**
- **[SuperWoW](https://github.com/balakethelock/SuperWoW) — optional / recommended**
ClassicAPI is the primary API layer. Extras modules call the shared `ShaguTweaks.API` bridge, which prefers ClassicAPI and centralizes any necessary Vanilla fallback. Native Vanilla UI APIs are kept only where ClassicAPI has no equivalent.
## 📦 Installation
1. Install **ClassicAPI**.
2. Install **ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI** and rename its folder to `ShaguTweaks`.
3. Optionally install **SuperWoW**.
4. Rename this addon folder to `ShaguTweaks-extras`.
5. Copy it to `World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\ShaguTweaks-extras`.
6. Restart the game.
Settings: **Esc → Advanced Options**.
> The `ShaguTweaks-extras` folder name must be kept for compatibility with bundled texture paths.
## ✨ Main changes
- ClassicAPI-first integration through the shared `ShaguTweaks.API` layer.
- Removed modules already integrated into ShaguTweaks-ClassicAPI.
- Improved macro support with modern ClassicAPI-backed commands.
- Better macro icon and `#showtooltip` handling.
- Safer hooks and fewer destructive global overrides.
- Reduced unnecessary per-frame work and repeated UI scans.
- Improved raid-frame initialization and shared periodic updates.
- Better Turtle WoW-like server compatibility for items, auras and UI behavior.
- Various stability fixes across legacy ShaguTweaks Extras modules.
## 🔷 Mods using ClassicAPI directly
- Bag Item Click
- Bag Search Bar
- Macro Icons
- Macro Tweaks
- Raid Frames
- Show Dispel Indicators
- Show Bags
- Show Micro Menu
**Reagent Counter** also benefits indirectly: its shared `ShaguTweaks.GetItemCount` helper now uses ClassicAPI container/item data through the same bridge.
Other modules remain on native Vanilla UI/game APIs only where ClassicAPI does not provide an equivalent. ClassicAPI/Vanilla fallback decisions stay centralized in `ShaguTweaks.API` instead of being duplicated inside Extras modules.
