## What it is
A beginner-friendly tutorial repository (mostly in Chinese) for setting up a personal Shadowsocks proxy server on a VPS to bypass internet censorship. It walks through buying a VPS (Vultr/DigitalOcean), connecting via SSH, installing Shadowsocks, and related tools like kcptun, v2ray, and Clash.

## Use cases
- set up my own shadowsocks server to bypass the great firewall
- beginner tutorial for deploying a proxy on a vultr vps
- how to install shadowsocks on debian step by step
- speed up shadowsocks with kcptun
- configure git to use a shadowsocks proxy
- access blocked websites like chatgpt from china
- self-host a personal vpn-like proxy server

## When to choose
- you are a beginner wanting a step-by-step guide to self-hosting Shadowsocks on a VPS
- you need Chinese-language instructions with screenshots for circumventing censorship
- you want to learn the full flow from VPS purchase to client configuration

## When to avoid
