## What it is
A GlobalProtect VPN client for Linux built on OpenConnect, offering both a CLI and a Tauri-based GUI. It supports SSO authentication including MFA, FIDO2/YubiKey, SAML, and client certificates.

## Use cases
- connect to a GlobalProtect VPN on Linux
- authenticate to a corporate VPN with SSO and MFA
- use a YubiKey or FIDO2 for VPN login
- connect to Palo Alto GlobalProtect with client certificate authentication
- auto-connect VPN on system startup
- manage VPN connections from the system tray

## When to choose
- you need a modern GlobalProtect client on Linux with SSO/MFA support
- the official GlobalProtect client is unavailable or broken on your distribution
- you want both CLI and GUI interfaces for VPN connectivity

## When to avoid
- you need a VPN protocol other than GlobalProtect/OpenConnect
- you require an officially supported enterprise client with vendor support
