Stronger Windows integration
Persistent administrator launch, IPv6 bypass risk, limited connection state visibility and fork-unaware updates made daily use and maintenance harder.

PWDTT
Tunnel desktop traffic through VK TURN/DTLS with a maintained fork focused on Windows reliability, diagnostics and release quality.
This fork keeps the original PWDTT architecture and compatibility while adding a connection dashboard, VK hash tooling, IPv6 leak protection, selective privilege elevation, fork-aware updates, installer packaging and a broader automated release pipeline.

What this fork changes
PWDTT originates from luminescq/PWDTT. The fork is maintained as a separate release line with its own fixes, Windows integration, diagnostics and delivery pipeline.
Keep compatibility, harden the client around it
The fork preserves TURN/DTLS and WireGuard behavior while isolating privileged operations, adding leak protection and diagnostics, and making releases reproducible.
> capabilities
Fork capabilities
The additions concentrate on observability, Windows safety, VK hash operations and reliable release delivery.
VK TURN/DTLS tunneling
Preserves the original PWDTT transport model and WireGuard-based tunnel path.
Connection dashboard
Structured connection state, server selection, progress and runtime statistics.
VK hash management
Dedicated tooling with staged VK → TURN → WRAP → DTLS diagnostics.
IPv6 leak protection
Windows full-tunnel mode blocks direct Internet6 traffic and cleans stale firewall rules.
Selective elevation
The GUI stays unelevated; administrator rights are requested only for privileged tunnel operations.
Fork-aware updates
Update checks use Regstar2/pwdtt releases and require a compatible official asset.

$ architecture
Application architecture
Wails connects a React desktop interface to a Go backend and the local tunnel core.
Frontend
React 19, TypeScript, Vite and Wails bindings for connection, settings, logs and VK hash screens.
Backend
Go services for lifecycle, updates, diagnostics, storage, Windows integration and privileged operations.
Core
Local wg-turn client, worker sessions, authentication and TURN/DTLS transport logic.
Tunnel
WireGuard/Wintun with full-tunnel routing and Windows IPv6 leak protection where applicable.
Delivery
Cross-platform builds, Windows installer, Authenticode checks, SHA-256 manifests and smoke tests.
