    Download WireGuard for Windows at https://www.wireguard.com/install . This repo is a mirror only. Official repository is at https://git.zx2c4.com/wireguard-windows

  • The wireguard maintainer, Jason Donenfeld, is pretty darn active about getting wireguard adopted across all platforms. He has developed executables for just about every popular platform there is. The creator of Linux has praised his efforts. He's a pretty big deal.

  • wireguard-vyatta-ubnt

    WireGuard for Ubiquiti Devices

  • Wireguard is a next generation VPN protocol. A really darn sleek, efficient, amazing protocol that has been endorsed by pretty large players. Players like... I don't know... the linux kernel.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • pfSense

    Main repository for pfSense

  • In this case, it's about a vendor who supports fairly robust networking software. Software you can run on your own hardware.

  • core

    OPNsense GUI, API and systems backend (by opnsense)

  • OPNsense launched in 2015 with the idea of providing a more professional, less offensive firewall community. And my god, did the creators of PFsense hate that.
