NordSelect

A fast library/CLI to find the perfect NordVPN server to connect to, based on given filters.

Possible filters are:

Library Usage

The documentation of the library can be found at docs.rs.

Selection method

To select a server without waiting too long, we use the following method:

• Take all possible servers with the given filters.

• Take the best one.

If you think you have a better selection procedure, please let me know by opening an issue.
