A simple and user-friendly GUI for managing OpenVPN connections.
This project was developed in a short amount of time, so it’s not perfect. I welcome all contributions to help improve it!
- Easy Connection Management: Connect, disconnect, and switch profiles with just a few clicks.
- Profile Handling: Load your
.ovpnfiles seamlessly. - Minimal Design: A clean, simple interface to get things done quickly.
- Linux-First: Currently, this tool is developed and tested only for Linux systems.
Note: While the project is focused on Linux, it can be built for Windows and macOS with some modifications. Contributions to expand compatibility are welcome!
I built this tool as a fun personal project to streamline my workflow while solving CTF challenges. While it's not intended for professional use, I hope it might also be helpful to others.
Feel free to star ⭐ the repo if you find it useful!
