# SelfVPN
> A simple VPN client for creating and connecting DigitalOcean droplets

SelfVPN automatizes VPN server installation on DigitalOcean droplets. You can create and destroy droplets with this client. It will also run [this script](https://github.com/hwdsl2/setup-ipsec-vpn) to install VPN server on your droplet.

## Advantages of Using SelfVPN
 - You don't need to pay fixed monthly price for VPN. You will be paying hourly usage of droplet. For example if you destroy your droplet after 4 hours of daily usage, it will cost you 5$ * 4 / 24 = **0.84$** monthly (other taxes may apply).
 - SelfVPN is directly connected to DigitalOcean v2 API, there is no server owned by SelfVPN between you and your actual VPN server.
 - You are total control of your VPN server. You may create VPN servers on 8 different locations and destroy them as you wish.
