VPNs and connecting your devices together

Open Source

AVNC

VNC client for Android to view and control your computers remotely, with SSH tunneling and a touch-friendly UI.

The drag mouse mode is sooo convenient.

Open Source

Firewall that asks before any app connects out to the internet, so you can block unknown or unwanted connections.

Free

Fast, low-latency remote desktop app to control or support another computer or phone from anywhere. Free for personal use.

Open Source

Web server and reverse proxy with automatic HTTPS, configured with a short and readable Caddyfile.

CLI only

Open Source

Keeps DNS records pointing at your changing home IP, for dozens of providers, with a small status page.

It solves the problem: I have a domain, and I need it to always match my dynamic home IP.

Open Source

No-root firewall for Android: block internet access per app, on Wi-Fi and mobile data separately.

Open Source

Application firewall that shows and controls every connection your apps make, with built-in tracker and ad blocking.

Open Source

Lightweight firewall for Windows built on the Windows Filtering Platform: allow or block each app's network access.

Free

Mesh VPN that puts all your devices on one private network, so they reach each other from anywhere with no port forwarding.

In my opinion, despite not being 100% self-hosted, it’s a must-have for self-hosting. It saves so much time.
