Wireguard docs are useful: https://www.wireguard.com/netns/
If you want to RUN a VPN, master iptables and enterprise networking: https://www.amazon.com/Linux-Firewalls-3rd-Steve-Suehring/dp... .
If you want to WRITE a VPN, read the source of a few openly available relatively simple VPN/tunnel implementations.
