SIMPLEPARTYTARGETS
--------------------------------------------------

SimplePartyTargets is a lightweight, Blizzard-style addon that shows each
party member’s current target directly under or beside the default Blizzard
party frames (party-only), or your Danders Frames (with option to show when solo.

The goal is simple:
- Improve party awareness at a glance.
- Preserve Blizzard’s default UI look and behavior.
- Avoid unitframe replacements, automation, or heavy hooks.
- Stay conservative to reduce taint and patch breakage.

If you like Blizzard’s party frames but want clearer target information,
SimplePartyTargets adds it without getting in the way.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
--------------------------------------------------

SimplePartyTargets is intentionally conservative.

• No unitframe replacements.
• No combat automation.
• No secure action manipulation.
• No invasive hooks or fragile tricks.
• No heavy polling.

All visuals are layered on top of Blizzard’s existing UI and respect
combat lockdown rules.

The focus is on:
- Stability.
- Predictability.
- Forward compatibility.

When Blizzard restricts access to certain data, the addon is designed
to fail gracefully rather than cause errors or taint.

--------------------------------------------------
COMPATIBILITY
--------------------------------------------------

• Built using modern Blizzard APIs.
• Updated and compatible with Retail 12.0 (Midnight) and onwards.
• Party-only by design (no raid support).
• Compatible with most UI addons, like Danders Frames.

--------------------------------------------------
WHY THIS ADDON EXISTS
--------------------------------------------------

Because:
- Party awareness matters.
- Target information shouldn’t require a full unitframe replacement.
- Blizzard’s UI is solid — it just benefits from a small, careful enhancement.

SimplePartyTargets adds clarity without turning your UI into a science project.

The idea for this addon was inspired by the clean target indicators found in
ElvUI.

No ElvUI code is used in this addon.
SimplePartyTargets is written independently using Blizzard’s UI APIs.
