Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Considering it's basically just a script "frontend": wireguard and its documentation.

Couldn't agree more. Wireguard isn't really hard once you understand the basics.

I'm sorry but wireguard is not easy for beginners and the quick QR code generator in the command line was fantastic and light years ahead of fumbling around with getting config files securely to a mobile device.

That script is a wrapper around a single call to qrencode. I've been making qr codes from wireguard config files in the terminal at least since PiVPN existed. There are plenty of guides on how to do this as well.
