HOOKSHOT
GITHUB Same word, different things
Which Hookshot?
If you wanted the Ocarina of Time PC program, use the home page. If you wanted the Zelda item, use the Zelda table. Everyone else can use the list below.
The list
GitHub Hookshot is the webhook delivery service. GitHub's own old repository page now 404s, and the current docs live under Webhooks. samuelgr/Hookshot is a C++ library for injecting a DLL and hooking function calls. It is not the game project, even though the repository name matches. matrix-hookshot is a Matrix bot that bridges rooms to GitHub, GitLab, Jira, and RSS. The docs are on matrix-org.github.io.
Hookshot for macOS, at hookshot.app, moves and resizes windows. Hookshot Media is a games publisher associated with sites such as Nintendo Life. Protege sells Hookshot Agents, an automation product, at tryprotege.com. hkshot.com is a Chinese product-image tool and is unrelated to this game guide. A hook shot in basketball is a sweeping one-handed shot. Unreal Engine tutorials about a 2D grappling move are programming lessons, not a game named Hookshot. A 2019 Steam release, app 1031570, is its own small game.
Questions
I searched Hookshot GitHub and found a bot.
That is either GitHub's webhook layer or matrix-hookshot. The game project is NotRexed/Hookshot.
Is hookshot.app the game?
No. It is a macOS window manager.
