Show HN: Pangolin: Open-source identity-based VPN (Twingate/Zscaler alternative)

Sun, 02/15/2026 - 5:50am

Pangolin (https://github.com/fosrl/pangolin) is an open-source tool for identity-based remote access to internal resources - an alternative to Cloudflare ZTNA, Zscaler, and Twingate.

It’s different than existing approaches: mesh VPNs (Tailscale, ZeroTier, etc.) create flat overlay networks where ACL and IP space management becomes complex at scale and every device can talk to every other device, while corporate ZTNA solutions (Zscaler, Cato, Netskope etc.) are closed-source and add latency by forcing traffic through a central server.

Pangolin takes a resource-centric approach. You deploy lightweight connectors that bridge to specific resources (private web apps, SSH, databases, CIDR ranges). Admins delegate resource-access to specific users and roles. It uses WireGuard with NAT hole-punching for peer-to-peer connections and traffic goes directly between the user and connector instead of through a central server. It supports native clients (Mac/Windows/Linux/iOS/Android) plus identity-aware, browser-based access when a client isn’t required.

Pangolin has a cloud and is optionally self-hosted. The Community Edition is AGPLv3. The Enterprise Edition is also open-source under the commercial license which enables free personal/small business use.

Show HN: I built a map where anyone can rename anything

Sun, 02/15/2026 - 5:48am

The idea is simple: click any place on the map, propose a name, others vote, or it will be auto-accepted in ~5min. No account needed for fresh locations or name duel - only to challenge already-renamed places or vote to prevent abuse. 40k renames so far, and surprisingly people mostly behave. Some names are genuinely creative and I keep learning random geography facts just by watching the map (did you know someone mapped every single animal in a Taiwan Kaohsiung zoo on OpenStreetMap?)

Non-commercial, just a side project. Stack is SvelteKit, MapLibre, 40GB vector map self-hosted on Cloudflare R2.

Please don't use this for navigation.

Show HN: Visual state tracking for AI agents in tmux

Sun, 02/15/2026 - 5:25am

I run multiple Claude Code and Codex sessions in tmux panes. The main annoyance was not knowing when an agent finished or hit a permission prompt without switching to each pane to check.

This plugin hooks into agent lifecycle events and changes pane borders, window titles, and status bar icons to reflect three states: running, needs-input, done. Colors reset when you focus the pane.

Works with Claude Code and Codex out of the box. Any other agent can integrate by calling a single shell script.

Show HN: Addictive little browser game involving gravity

Sun, 02/15/2026 - 5:20am

A single-file HTML5 canvas application (~1200 lines of JavaScript, no dependencies, less than 50KB in size): in a randomly generated universe, you pilot a ship using Newtonian physics: gravity pulls you in, atmospheric drag slows you down, and you have limited thrust fuel that depletes your score when used. Don't crash! It's a proof of concept, a game created with Claude AI in about 10 minutes (and further enhanced).
