Algo

Algo is a cloud VPN deployment tool and WireGuard orchestrator designed to automate the provisioning and configuration of personal VPN servers across multiple cloud infrastructure providers. It functions as a multi-cloud infrastructure provisioner and a VPN client configuration generator, creating the necessary tunnels and connection profiles for secure device connectivity.

The project distinguishes itself by integrating a network ad-blocking DNS server directly into the deployment, filtering advertisements and malicious domains for all connected clients. It further simplifies the onboarding process by generating protocol-specific configuration files and Apple configuration profiles for mobile and desktop devices.

The system covers broad capability areas including cloud infrastructure automation for providers such as DigitalOcean, Google Cloud, and Hetzner, as well as network traffic management through split tunneling and LAN passthrough. It also handles security and access control via Linux firewall configuration and cloud security group automation.

Deployment can be executed in a containerized environment or via headless mode using environment variables to bypass interactive prompts.
