## What it is
A bash script that installs and configures a WireGuard VPN server on Linux with NAT and IPv4/IPv6 support. Re-running the script lets you add or remove VPN clients interactively.

## Use cases
- set up a wireguard vpn server on linux
- install wireguard with nat on a vps
- create a personal vpn to browse with the server's ip
- add and remove wireguard clients from a server
- configure ipv6-enabled wireguard tunnel
- self-host a vpn on debian or ubuntu

## When to choose
- you want a one-command WireGuard setup on a supported Linux distribution
- you need a full-tunnel VPN with NAT and IPv6 support
- you manage clients by re-running an interactive script

## When to avoid
- you need a VPN on non-Linux servers
- you want OpenVPN or another protocol instead
- you need a GUI or centralized client management dashboard
