Embed ZeroTier directly into your app
ZeroTier makes it easy to securely connect devices, servers, cloud VMs, containers, and apps everywhere and manage them at scale. Now, with libzt you can bake this ability directly into your app or service using your preferred language or framework. We provide a BSD socket-like API to make the integration simple and there's no longer any need for system-wide virtual interfaces. This connection is exclusive to your app.
Pre-Built Binaries Here: zerotier.com/download.shtml.

Bindings for various languages
git submodule init
git submodule update
make static_lib
All targets will output to build/. Complete instructions here
- See TESTING.md
- For a BSD license, build using the
lwIPnetwork stack withSTACK_LWIP=1 - For a GPL license, build using the
picoTCPnetwork stack withSTACK_PICO=1
Regardless of which network stack you build with, the socket API will remain the same.
