Community for discussing enterprise networks and the ensuing chaos that comes after inheriting or building one.

Been slowly stabilizing my new project I'm calling (for lack of a better name at the moment) Webmesh and hitting the rounds on some social networks.

It's yet another mechanism for configuring WireGuard networks, with the core difference from others being that it uses raft-consensus to maintain state between connected instances. This allows for any node to optionally be a "controller server" on top of being a spoke in the network. There is more information in the Github - but tons more documentation is needed for sure.

I'm building a plugin architecture around it as well as potentially looking to build a saas or some other type of offering. Been actively looking for another developer or two who may be interested in embarking on the adventure with me. Feel free to reach out if interested. Also happy to hear any feedback :)

Neat! How do "servers" know how to contact each other? Does at least one server need a static public IP to be a lighthouse?
