[PROJECT] - Webmesh: A simple, distributed, zero-configuration WireGuard mesh provider (github.com)

Hey all

I wanted to show off my new project, webmesh. It's yet another solution for creating WireGuard mesh networks/VPNs between multiple hosts.
It differs from others in that there is a controller-less architecture that maintains the network state on every node via Raft consensus. This allows for any node to become the "leader" should one go away.

More infoz in the README and on the project website: https://webmeshproj.github.io

Excited to hear any feedback :)

It would be nice to have in docs how to properly and securely run it (aka. Like in prod) if someone would like to actually use it.

Because on quick look it look like there will be a painful road to set it securely that might scare people (including me)

This page aims to cover that (at least for using mTLS) https://webmeshproj.github.io/documentation/using-mtls/ - but you are right - administration docs in general need a lot more love.

EDIT: I've added a link to that page in the part of the insecure "Getting Started" that says "this is insecure don't do it this way". Hopefully that helps people in the right direction a bit more - but I have a long road of more documentation ahead of me.

As always - any and all contributions are welcome :)
