Will Norris d74c771fda client/web: always use new web client; remove old client

This uses the new react-based web client for all builds, not just with
the --dev flag.

If the web client assets have not been built, the client will serve a
message that Tailscale was built without the web client, and link to
build instructions. Because we will include the web client in all of our
builds, this should only be seen by developers or users building from
source. (And eventually this will be replaced by attempting to download
needed assets as runtime.)

We do now checkin the build/index.html file, which serves the error
message when assets are unavailable.  This will also eventually be used
to trigger in CI when new assets should be built and uploaded to a
well-known location.

Private WireGuard® networks made easy

Overview

This repository contains the majority of Tailscale's open source code. Notably, it includes the tailscaled daemon and the tailscale CLI tool. The tailscaled daemon runs on Linux, Windows, macOS, and to varying degrees on FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The Tailscale iOS and Android apps use this repo's code, but this repo doesn't contain the mobile GUI code.

Other Tailscale repos of note:

the Android app is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-android
the Synology package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-synology
the QNAP package is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-qpkg
the Chocolatey packaging is at https://github.com/tailscale/tailscale-chocolatey

For background on which parts of Tailscale are open source and why, see https://tailscale.com/opensource/.

Using

We serve packages for a variety of distros and platforms at https://pkgs.tailscale.com.

Other clients

The macOS, iOS, and Windows clients use the code in this repository but additionally include small GUI wrappers. The GUI wrappers on non-open source platforms are themselves not open source.

Building

We always require the latest Go release, currently Go 1.21. (While we build releases with our Go fork, its use is not required.)

go install tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale{,d}

If you're packaging Tailscale for distribution, use build_dist.sh instead, to burn commit IDs and version info into the binaries:

./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale
./build_dist.sh tailscale.com/cmd/tailscaled

If your distro has conventions that preclude the use of build_dist.sh, please do the equivalent of what it does in your distro's way, so that bug reports contain useful version information.

Building the web client

To include the embedded web client (accessed via the tailscale web command), you'll need to build the client assets using:

./tool/yarn --cwd client/web build

Do this before building the tailscale.com/cmd/tailscale binary.

Bugs

Please file any issues about this code or the hosted service on the issue tracker.

Contributing

PRs welcome! But please file bugs. Commit messages should reference bugs.

We require Developer Certificate of Origin Signed-off-by lines in commits.

See git log for our commit message style. It's basically the same as Go's style.
