Compare WireGuard Mesh Tools

WireGuard is an extremely simple yet fast and modern VPN that utilizes state-of-the-art cryptography and supports mesh networking. However by default it requires manual configuartion. As such adding a new client to the network would require the admin to update O(n2) client configurations each time they add a new client. wg-dynamic was a proposed WireGuard-native tool that would help with autoconfiguration, unfortunately development of this has gone stale. So here is a list of alternative tools instead.
