# OpenFUT

**Offline Ultimate Team — like SPT, but for FIFA 23.**

OpenFUT replaces EA's retired FUT servers with a fully offline, single-player backend. You own FIFA 23 legitimately. You just want to keep playing after EA shut down the servers.

## Repositories

| Repo | Purpose |
|---|---|
| [`openfut-core`](./openfut-core) | Game-independent offline FUT backend |
| [`openfut-bridge`](./openfut-bridge) | FIFA 23 integration layer + reverse-engineering proxy |

## Architecture

```
FIFA 23 client
      │
      ▼
┌─────────────────┐
│  openfut-bridge │  ← intercepts FUT traffic, maps routes, logs unknown
└────────┬────────┘
         │
         ▼
┌─────────────────┐
│  openfut-core   │  ← offline FUT backend: profiles, packs, squads, SBCs
└─────────────────┘

**Core** is game-independent. It speaks a clean REST API and knows nothing about FIFA 23 internals.

**Bridge** is FIFA-specific. It speaks FIFA 23's wire protocol and translates it into Core API calls. Bridge is where all reverse engineering work happens.

## Running

```bash
# Start the offline backend
cd openfut-core
cargo run

# Start the proxy (for traffic capture / FIFA integration)
cd openfut-bridge
cargo run
```

Core listens on `http://127.0.0.1:8080` by default.
Bridge listens on `http://127.0.0.1:8443` by default.

## Design Principles

- **Offline-first.** No EA account required. No internet connection needed.
- **Single-player only.** This is not a multiplayer server emulator.
- **Data-driven.** All cards, packs, SBCs, and objectives are JSON files. Everything is moddable.
- **Clean architecture.** Core has zero knowledge of FIFA 23. Bridge has zero game logic.
- **No copyrighted assets.** No real player images, no EA trademarks in data files.
