Show HN: TunnlTo – Windows WireGuard split tunnel client built with Rust, Tauri
I assume since Wiresock is using BoringTun(https://github.com/cloudflare/boringtun) under the hood, it works similar to other userspace implementations of wireguard, (e.g. wireguard-go, wireguard-rs) in that it uses a TUN device to deliver packets to the userspace implementation, and back out to the network. So, no driver installation required, but CAP_NET_ADMIN is required to create the TUN device.

Set up your own VPN at home with Raspberry Pi – Wolfang's Blog
It's using some sort of a custom installer that also downloads Cloudflare's BoringTun (https://github.com/cloudflare/boringtun) directly from the author's website (nyr[.]be), since Cloudflare doesn't seem to offer it as a binary release. Example:
{ wget -qO- https://wg.nyr[.]be/1/latest/download 2>/dev/null || curl -sL https://wg.nyr.be/1/latest/download ; } | tar xz -C /usr/local/sbin/ --wildcards 'boringtun-*/boringtun' --strip-components 1 -

Show HN: A tool to self host game servers with a free static IP
Looks like this uses https://github.com/cloudflare/boringtun, a userspace implementation of Wireguard written in Rust, and user IP:port is sent to third party at api.playit.gg.

Cannot seem to get rust-boringtun example to work with real world wire guard servers.
I cant seem to translate the ping example at https://github.com/cloudflare/boringtun/blob/v0.3.0/src/noise/tests/mod.rs#L440 into a real world example, using actual wireguard client keys and server config.I have likely mis-configured something, as I am getting a handshake response and sending of a keep alive message, but no response from the Wireguard server I am trying to ping (although i can ping these using the Linux ping command )

WireGuard Removed from pfSense CE and pfSense Plus Software
wireguard-go sucks, royally. Try https://github.com/cloudflare/boringtun, it doesn't suck
