Why Source Code Is Partially Hidden

The core packet injection logic — responsible for crafting and sending deauthentication/beacon frames — is NOT included in this repository.

**Reasons:**
- Prevent misuse by unskilled individuals.
- Comply with security research ethics.
- Avoid distributing ready-to-use harmful code.
- Encourage learning through protocol study.

Only non-harmful UI code and framework logic are provided.
If you need the full version for legitimate, legal research — you must implement your own packet logic.
