I’ve been hacking on something I’m calling NetGoat. It started because I wanted Cloudflare-style reverse proxying + basic WAF functionality, but without the lock-in or the SaaS overhead. I ended up building my own and figured it might be useful to others here.
It’s still early, and nothing works but im planning to have:
Reverse proxy with domain-based routing
Basic request inspection + blocking (lightweight WAF)
Built to be self-hosted
Uses Bun/Node under the hood
Simple to extend, with an eye toward being developer-friendly

Happy to answer questions, share internals, or hear your pain
