for anyone waiting for this to be available I suggest v2raya
it has a web based gui
this is how I have it in my nixos configuration

systemd.services.v2raya = {
    enable = true;
    description = "v2rayA gui client";
    after = [ "network.target" ];
    serviceConfig = {
      Restart = "always";
      ExecStart = "${unstable.v2raya}/bin/v2rayA";
    };
    path = with pkgs; [ iptables bash ];
    wantedBy = [ "multi-user.target" ];

  }

I didn't manage to build it from source, however patching binary seems to work as temporary solution

{
  stdenv,
  fetchzip,
  makeDesktopItem,
  autoPatchelfHook,
  copyDesktopItems,
  qtbase,
  qtsvg,
  qttools,
  qtx11extras,
  wrapQtAppsHook,
}:
stdenv.mkDerivation rec {
  pname = "nekoray";
  version = "3.26";
  date = "2023-12-09";

  src = fetchzip {
    url = "https://github.com/MatsuriDayo/nekoray/releases/download/${version}/nekoray-${version}-${date}-linux64.zip";
    hash = "sha256-Wp97qT3VBlSxK2qAVLxm041NR0c5vi8SSI/4VdwvQTY=";
  };

  desktopItems = [
    (makeDesktopItem {
      name = pname;
      desktopName = pname;
      exec = "nekoray";
      icon = "nekoray";
      comment = "Qt based cross-platform GUI proxy configuration manager";
      categories = ["Network" "Utility"];
    })
  ];

  dontWrapQtApps = true;

  nativeBuildInputs = [autoPatchelfHook copyDesktopItems wrapQtAppsHook];
  buildInputs = [
    qtbase
    qtsvg
    qttools
    qtx11extras
  ];

  installPhase = ''
    runHook preInstall

    mkdir -p $out/{share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps,usr/lib/nekoray,bin}
    install -Dm755 ./{nekobox_core,nekoray_core,nekoray} $out/usr/lib/nekoray/
    install -Dm644 ./{geosite.db,geosite.dat,geoip.db,geoip.dat} $out/usr/lib/nekoray/
    install -Dm644 ./nekoray.png $out/share/icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/

    wrapQtApp $out/usr/lib/nekoray/nekoray \
      --add-flags "-- -appdata"

    mv $out/usr/lib/nekoray/nekoray $out/bin/nekoray

    runHook postInstall
  '';
}

It can be used as overlay, for example nekoray = prev.libsForQt5.callPackage ./nekoray.nix {};

Can someone explain how to exactly use this as an overlay? I am using flakes btw.

I've added a tracking list here: #287770

[TomaSajt]

I have succeeded in compiling the package (the go parts too), now I'm in the process of putting it all together. Hopefully I don't get stuck just before the end.
