This is a cross-platform GUI client for OpenConnect, written in Rust and designed to work seamlessly on Windows, Linux, and macOS desktop systems. The program utilizes various technologies including MSYS2, Tauri, React, and NextUI. It provides a user-friendly interface for connecting to VPN servers using both password and OIDC authentication methods.

• Cross-platform compatibility (Windows, Linux, macOS)
• Easy-to-use GUI interface
• Support for both password and OIDC authentication
• Built with MSYS2, Tauri, React, and NextUI

• GUI:

  • Supports Windows(x64), Linux(x64), and macOS(aarch64, x64)

  • Download can be found in Releases

• CLI install:

  • Only supports Linux(x64) and macOS(aarch64, x64)

  • Run the following command in your terminal:

    curl -sL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hlhr202/Openconnect-RS/main/install-cli.sh | sh

• Run the following command in your terminal:

  openconnect --help

  This will print the following help message:

• Read the System Requirements for environment setup
• Modify it to fit your environment (For automatic setup, its WIP)
• For windows, since openconnect provides GNU automake, we currently only support MSYS2-MINGW64 and x86_64-pc-windows-gnu toolchain
  • Install MSYS2
  • Install x86_64-pc-windows-gnu toolchain with command rustup default stable-x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
  • Run cargo under MINGW64 shell
