What it does

A Terminal User Interface (TUI) that automates the entire lifecycle of personal VPN servers using Tailscale exit nodes on Vultr infrastructure.

Key Features:

  • Automated server creation and removal
  • Multi-region support (UK, US, JP, AU, etc.)
  • Immediate exposure to all devices in Tailscale network (home/office/phone)
  • Cost-effective: $2.50/month or $0.01/hour
  • Full control and encryption under your own infrastructure
  • Interactive TUI with step-by-step deployment

Workflow:

  1. Select region (Atlanta, London, Tokyo, Sydney, etc.)
  2. Find best plan (shows IPv6-only warnings)
  3. Confirm deployment with cost breakdown
  4. Server automatically joins Tailscale network as exit node
  5. Browse internet through your own VPN on any device

Tech Stack

  • Infrastructure: Vultr Cloud Compute
  • VPN: Tailscale (exit node feature)
  • Interface: TUI (Text User Interface)
  • OS: Debian 12 x64
  • Specs: 1 vCPU, 512MB RAM (vc2-1c-0.5gb-v6)

Why This Matters

Rather than manually deploying and logging into servers, this CLI automates the entire process. You get enterprise-grade VPN infrastructure at consumer pricing ($2.50/month) with full control over encryption and routing.
