weron is a Go-based tool and library that creates lean, fast, and secure overlay networks using WebRTC. It connects nodes behind NATs and firewalls via STUN/TURN traversal and exposes a simple API for building peer-to-peer protocols.

Use cases

• ssh into homelab machines behind NAT without port forwarding
• create a secure VPN-like mesh between devices
• join on-prem nodes into a cloud Kubernetes cluster network
• bypass network censorship using WebRTC traffic
• encrypt traffic between nodes on a local network
• build custom peer-to-peer distributed applications

When to choose

• you need NAT/firewall traversal without port forwarding
• you want a lightweight WebRTC-based overlay or mesh VPN
• you need to tunnel traffic through restrictive networks
• you want a Go library for writing P2P protocols with reconnects and multiple datachannels

When to avoid

• you need a mature, battle-tested VPN like WireGuard or Tailscale
• you need high-throughput routing where WebRTC overhead matters
• you need centralized management and ACLs for large fleets
• you need non-AGPL-3.0 licensing for your product
