Is their a easy wireguard CLI client app for Debian Linux? This is ridiculous.
So I set up a wireguard server on my centOS server... turns out thats the easy part. I cant figure out how to connect my linux pc to it. I really don't want to have to do all sorts of weird shit with new adapters just to connect.
On android theirs an app for it that works great. Anything like that for linux? Preferably CLI.

Does wg-quick exsist on debian, if it does use the same client config you use on any other platform
Of course it does.
copy your .conf to /etc/wireguard/example.conf
wg-quick up example.conf
done...
It's not great but...
If you install https://pivpn.io/ (select Wiregaurd in the setup wizard) on the linux client device it configures pretty much everything you need to connect to a server (subject to importing a valid conf file and setting Wireguard to start the connection automatically).
This has worked for me fine for 6 months on multiple client boxes (various Pis and Intel debian).
Seems a bit like killing a wasp with a hand grenade but it gets the job done. I could never find a way to get it to work otherwise, as I recall various things you need for Wireguard are not in Debian Buster, you can get them from the Bullseye repos but it's far from simple.
Hope that's useful.
