Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Free Tech Tools and Resources - Multi-clock Display, Networking Tools, Digital Forensics & More
NetBird is a configuration-free, peer-to-peer private network combined with a centralized access control system. Utilizing a WireGuard-based overlay network, it ensures encrypted connections between machines without the need for complex configurations such as port openings, intricate firewall rules, or VPN gateways. Prioritizes security with intuitive management of granular access policies for secure remote access, applicable universally across any infrastructure. petr205 explains, "Their SaaS version is free up to 100 machines and 5 users, but the self-hosted version is exactly the same and has very low requirements."

Show HN: WireHub – easily create and share WireGuard networks
It is always great to see another solution using Wireguard, which is a great technology for modern private connectivity.
I built https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird, which can be self-hosted and offers an option to run Wireguard without managing firewalls for P2P connectivity.
- Would we still create Nebula today?
- Netbirdio/netbird: Connect devices into a single private WireGuard mesh network
-
NetMaker: Connect Everything with a WireGuard VPN
I'd add to that list Netbird, which is the one I ended up using after trying all of the above.

Ask HN: What's the Deal with Tailscale?
> they actively went after third party coordination servers, wherenas I hear headscale mentioned by tailscale employees all the time.
ZeroTier founder here. We never did anything remotely like that, so I'm curious about where you heard that.
We did adjust our licensing to counter people attempting to take the product, slap their own name on it, and monetize it without supporting us, but we are strongly considering going back to a more liberal license in the near future. In any case we didn't "go after" anyone, just limited commercial closed source use in a manner not unlike the AGPL. We never filed any kind of lawsuits about this or anything.
We also regularly promote third party open source products like this:
https://github.com/key-networks/ztncui
We've never had an issue with non-commercial or FOSS usage.
- Battle of (selfhosted) VPNS: Which is the fastest? Wireguard vs Tailscale vs Zerotier vs Nebula vs Netmaker vs Tinc
-
Selfhosted wireguard vs zerotier (or similar) what is best in terms of security
If you have a VPN somewhere, you could also try Nebula (https://www.defined.net/nebula/) or self-host the management server for Tailscale (https://github.com/juanfont/headscale) or zerotier (https://github.com/key-networks/ztncui).
-
Remote Access to HomeLab (Networking)
Disadvantages: Limited to 50 hosts (you can host your own ZeroTier Controller using Ztncui for unlimited hosts: https://github.com/key-networks/ztncui)
-
You should know about using ZeroTier or Tailscale as an easier approach to secure all your connections, while being easier infrastructure-wise than VPN
You can self host a controller of adding/removing devices and all ( https://github.com/key-networks/ztncui ), but it has an upstream connection to their managed services, it’s how the apps and all keep working.
-
Free plan member limit per network or overall?
There are a couple of Options out there that make controlling the controller easier, either through WEB Guis: https://github.com/key-networks/ztncui https://github.com/dec0dOS/zero-ui
- Headscale: Open-source implementation of the Tailscale control server

ZeroTier – Global Area Networking
Every zerotier node ships with the CLI network controller, but someone wrote a simple GUI for it and that is on docker.
-
ZeroUI - ZeroTier Controller Web UI - is a web user interface for a self-hosted ZeroTier network controller. ZTNCUI alternative.
ZeroUI implements controller-specific workarounds that address some existing [issues](https://github.com/zerotier/ZeroTierOne/issues/859). ZTNCUI [does not](https://github.com/key-networks/ztncui/issues/63).

Is ZeroTier safe?
You can host your own authorization server. https://github.com/key-networks/ztncui
What are some alternatives?
tailscale - The easiest, most secure way to use WireGuard and 2FA.
zero-ui - ZeroUI - ZeroTier Controller Web UI - is a web user interface for a self-hosted ZeroTier network controller.
Netmaker - Netmaker makes networks with WireGuard. Netmaker automates fast, secure, and distributed virtual networks.
ZeroTier - A Smart Ethernet Switch for Earth
headscale - An open source, self-hosted implementation of the Tailscale control server
MeshMage
Nebula - A scalable overlay networking tool with a focus on performance, simplicity and security
nebula-mesh-admin
firezone - Open-source VPN server and egress firewall for Linux built on WireGuard. Firezone is easy to set up (all dependencies are bundled thanks to Chef Omnibus), secure, performant, and self hostable.
