WireGuard is a novel VPN that runs inside the Linux Kernel and uses state-of-the-art cryptography (the "Noise" protocol). It aims to be faster, simpler, leaner, and more useful than IPSec, while avoiding the massive headache. It intends to be considerably more performant than OpenVPN. WireGuard is designed as a general purpose VPN for running on embedded interfaces and super computers alike, fit for many different circumstances. It runs over UDP.
This metapackage explicitly depends on both the kernel module and the userspace tooling.

We now have wireguard (0.0.20181218-1~mx17+1) in our test repository. I've heard about it lately, and found the package was now in Sid. The metapackage will also install a wireguard-dkms package that will build on 4.19 and 4.20 kernels, so is good for a while.
Re: MX 17 Repository: The Wireguard Thread
How about if I'm using MX 18? I'm running kernel:
4.19.0-5-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.37-2~mx17+1 (2019-05-15) x86_64 GNU/Linux
4.19.0-5-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.37-2~mx17+1 (2019-05-15) x86_64 GNU/Linux

Just compile Wireguard from Source, it's easy
I just installed wireguard from source, and it works fine. I followed the stock instructions here, see the section called "Compiling the Kernel Module from Source":
