Wireguard UI that's not wg-easy or wireguard-ui?

VPN

I couldn't get any of these to work properly. I'd like to use the VPN to bounce my traffic from the server, kinda like how a commercial VPN works. I wanted to see Netmaker seeing it was self-hosted and such but the UI is on their own site?

Why do I need to "create an account" if I'm hosting it on my server?

Either way, help would be appreciated.

EDIT: Finally got Firezone to work under nginx instead of caddy, it only took a couple of hours. Thank you for all your help <3

Netmaker has 2 diffrent versions, the SaaS version which they host. Or the selfhosted version which you host. You can find the documentation to host yourself (https://docs.netmaker.io/quick-start.html)

Let me introduce you to the stupid-proof Wireguard tool called PiVPN.

I've been struggling with wg-easy and wireguard-ui until I found PiVPN. It is terminal based but stupid easy. The name suggest Raspberry Pi but it works on every Debian based distro.

I'd just either use tailscale or selfhost the controlpanel with headscale.

Tailscale

tailscale uses the wireguard protocol so maybe you will find tailscale easier for you? seems like you've tried most of the other solutions, it's a fairly new protocol which was designed to be lightweight so the third party solutions need a little time to mature

VPN to bounce my traffic from the server

Just to clarify... you want to be (for example) be sat in a coffee shop, log in to your vpn and route all your traffic through your home internet connection?

If so, with WG-EASY all you need to do is set the environment WG_ALLOWED_IPS variable to 0.0.0.0/0

It's set to this by default so i'm wondering if this is actually what you're looking for.

I'd still recommend wg-easy. Alternatively, have a look at firezone. Firezone provides an easy install script. Just follow the documentation.
