Weron – A Peer-to-Peer VPN Based on WebRTC Written in Go

Hey HN! I just released weron, a P2P VPN that uses WebRTC for transport which I've been working on for the last couple of months. It can create both layer 2/Ethernet and layer 3/IP overlay networks, and the underlying transport layer can be easily embedded to write your own P2P apps with Go. Compared to for example Tailscale, WireGuard and ZeroTier, its much harder to block on a network level and also significantly easier to set up, while not sacrifing much performance. I'd love to get your feedback :)

In plain words

Weron is a peer-to-peer VPN built in Go that uses WebRTC for transport to create overlay networks at layer 2 or layer 3. It offers an alternative to Tailscale, WireGuard, and ZeroTier with easier setup and increased resistance to network-level blocking. The transport layer can be embedded into custom Go applications for developers building peer-to-peer tools.

    Netrinos – A keep it simple Mesh VPN for small teamsDec 2025 · netrinos.com · ▲93

    I'm the founder at Netrinos. I built a WireGuard-based mesh VPN because remote access has always been a pain. After years of SSH tunnels, IPsec headaches, and the ssh log horror movie, I wanted something simpler: install, sign in, get work done. Netrinos creates a LAN-like overlay network across your devices. Connections are direct P2P via WireGuard, with no central server routing traffic. Each device gets a stable IP and DNS name (pc.you.netrinos.com). When direct connections fail, they fall back to a relay server that's still encrypted end-to-end. We can't see your traffic. The most…

    WireHub – easily create and share WireGuard networks2023 · wirehub.org · ▲312

    WireHub is a side project I've been working on, on and off, for close to a year now. It's made with django and minimal javascript. It's a hosted WireGuard config generator/manager, that you can invite others to join your networks and manage their own configs/devices. It's still very much a beta, maybe an mvp, but I just wanted to get some early from the community. Thanks!

    SafeHaven – A Minimal VPN Implementation in Go2025 · github.com · ▲99

    Hi HN, For the past few months, I've been exploring tools that integrate with the Linux networking stack. This led me to build SafeHaven, a lightweight and configurable VPN implementation written in Go. The goal was to better understand how virtual private networks work at a fundamental level. Would love feedback from the community! Repo link: https://github.com/kwakubiney/safehaven
