A bit of marketing... :)

I think you can tell I am super excited about this project of your's... But I stumbled upon it completely by accident and it wasn't showing up in my google searches.

I think most people would search for something like:

  • wireguard UI
  • wireguard GUI
  • wireguard web interface

But you barely mention these words in your read me. I think you could drastically increase the visibility of your project by...

  • Changing the readme title to the words "WG-Access-Server: Advanced Wireguard UI and Web Interface"
  • Move screenshots up below documentation
  • Changing the first paragraph to highlight the standout features
wg-access-server is a single binary that provides a WireGuard VPN server and device management web ui. 

Features
- Multi-user authentication through OIDC and gitlab
- 1-click device registration that works with Mac, Linux, Windows, iOS and Android 
- QR code support for iOS and Android 
- Different network isolation modes that "just work" without messing with iptables and NAT

That should make it more likely to appear in the google search results for relevant terms.

And then you could also promote it a little. If you google "wireguard ui" you will see all the other UI developers posted about it on reddit on /r/WireGuard/ and /r/WireGuard/.

That could of course wait a little if you are planning on making a lot of improvements in the near future, but I think your project is already good to go!

I would also be more than happy to help sharing it.

Hey i'd love some help in this regard. Would you like to submit a PR updating the readme/docs/etc. with these ideas? I'd be more than happy to merge it :)

if you are planning on making a lot of improvements in the near future, but I think your project is already good to go!

I'm planning improvements but I don't expect to break anything or change it up in a big way any time soon!

The only reason I haven't labelled the project as a 1.0.0 is because I expect to refactor the server config a bit, with community feedback + new features, to hopefully arrive at something that has sane defaults and is easy to configure.

But yes, i'd love some help getting the README up to speed and anything else you think would be healthy for the project. Thanks for the interest :D
