The full story
Rampart is a free native iPhone, iPad and Mac app for keeping an eye on an OPNsense firewall. It connects directly to the firewall's REST API over the LAN, a VPN or Tailscale, keeps the API key in the Keychain and pins the certificate on first use; there is no cloud relay or account.
It shows a live dashboard, interfaces, gateways, firewall logs, services, WireGuard tunnels, Suricata alerts and DHCP leases. It is written in Swift 6 and SwiftUI with heavy help from Claude Code, and the maker says they reviewed and tested all the networking, certificate pinning and privacy design themselves. It is closed source.
