wg-easy is an all-in-one Docker application that runs a WireGuard VPN server together with a web-based admin UI for managing it. It lets administrators create, edit, enable, and monitor VPN clients, view QR codes and config downloads, and track connection statistics.

Use cases

• set up a WireGuard VPN server with a web admin panel
• manage VPN clients and generate QR codes for devices
• monitor which VPN clients are connected with traffic stats
• self-host a personal or small-business VPN on a Linux host
• manage VPN access with expiration and one-time links
• add 2FA or OIDC login to VPN administration

When to choose

• you want the simplest Docker-based WireGuard setup with a UI
• you need client management, QR codes, and connection statistics out of the box
• you want features like client expiration, one-time links, and Prometheus metrics
• you prefer a self-hosted VPN admin panel with OIDC/2FA support

When to avoid

• you need a VPN solution other than WireGuard
• you prefer managing WireGuard purely via config files without a web UI
• you cannot run Docker or a Linux host
• you need multi-node or clustered VPN management at scale
