I don't know how to write code — Codex built me a VPN service

By @_atomlib_ · Discord · May 6, 2026

I used Codex to set up a VPN server with a control panel. It uses my ProtonVPN connections. Essentially, it allows any number of users to connect to the VPN with Xray, then they exit through ProtonVPN exit nodes. Admins can upload Wireguard configs, invite users, set limits, there are speed limits, data limits, etc. I have no idea how to write code, I have never done any networking stuff whatsoever, or even set up servers, I asked Codex to set up everything.
