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 :)
Weron – A Peer-to-Peer VPN Based on WebRTC Written in Go launched on May 7, 2022 with 204 votes, #101 of 2,942 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 4 years on.
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 · ▲93I'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…

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!
