> innernet is similar in its goals to Slack's nebula or Tailscale,
That's great but doesn't tell me what innernet is or what problems it's going to solve for me. Terrible docs, no idea what this is suppose to do and I won't waste my energy trying to figure it out if the author can't write few sentences to describe the project.
Though, glad the author called out the registered trademarks!! That's really important.
- vineyardmike 4y agoIf you knew what Tailscale or nebula was you’d know exactly what this did. If you were someone who had a problem that could be solved by this product, you’d already be familiar with those brands. Besides, did you read the first two sentences? > A private network system that uses WireGuard under the hood. See the announcement blog post for a longer-winded explanation. Did you read the sentence after the one with brands? > It aims to take advantage of existing networking concepts like CIDRs and the security properties of WireGuard to turn your computer's basic IP networking into more powerful ACL primitives. Innernet creates a private overlay network using WireGuard. Unlike the brands it mentions which do the same thing, it uses CIDRs and WireGuard to implement ACL and permissions.
- paxys 4y agoThe README is pretty clear about what the product is and what it does. The very first line also links to a blog post with more details. What exactly are you expecting?
