Not really, but it was very simple and easy.

The "hardest" part is managing the tailscale installation on the router, since the OpenWRT packages seem to be quite old. I went old-fashioned and just download the ARM tarballs and uncompress them.

I lifted the init.d script from someone else's blog post [0] and adjusted the path to the binaries.

After that I've pretty much just followed the official docs to implement LAN routing [1] and the exit node [2], then set the router's cert so it doesn't expire, which is done on the Tailscale GUI.

Install the app on the devices, connect everything to the tailnet and Bob's your uncle.

I don't think we have one specifically for a setup like that, but we have lots of tutorials here: https://gravitl.com/resources
