Xray Core

Xray Core is an open-source networking and proxy platform designed to help users build advanced VPN, proxy, tunneling, and anti-censorship infrastructures using modern transport and encryption technologies. They provide a powerful networking core that supports protocols and technologies such as VLESS, VMESS, XTLS, REALITY, SOCKS5, Shadowsocks, WireGuard, TLS, HTTP-based tunneling, and DNS routing for secure and flexible traffic management. The platform focuses heavily on privacy, network performance, and censorship resistance, making it suitable for users building secure proxy systems, encrypted communication layers, and distributed networking environments. Xray Core is widely used across desktop, mobile, server, and router ecosystems through integrations with multiple GUI clients, panels, and deployment frameworks.

They also provide advanced capabilities such as traffic obfuscation, uTLS fingerprinting, XUDP support, multi-protocol routing, proxy chaining, load balancing, WireGuard inbound support, and REALITY transport technology for more resilient networking workflows. Xray Core supports deployment through Docker, Linux installation scripts, Homebrew, OpenWrt integrations, and multiple management panels including 3X-UI, Marzban, and Hiddify. Their ecosystem includes support for Windows, Android, Linux, iOS, macOS, routers, and embedded environments, making it highly adaptable for developers, infrastructure teams, and advanced users building secure networking or anti-censorship systems. The platform is maintained as part of Project X, an open-source initiative focused on high-performance networking and secure proxy technologies.

And the best part? They offer the platform as a free and open-source networking core, allowing users to deploy advanced VPN, proxy, and anti-censorship infrastructures without licensing costs.
