I am using a Steam Deck with Mullvad VPN WireGuard. I am quite limited with the software I can install without having to reinstall on each update. On each reboot I have to manual turn on the Mullvad VPN and there is no kill-switch. I run the Steam Deck in desktop mode most of the time connected to a monitor.
I tried to set the WireGuard settings to automatically connect, but the settings keep getting reset.
So I am looking for a desktop widget that can run the command:
curl https://am.i.mullvad.net/json
This gives me the connection status and extra information.
If you think I am going about this the wrong way, let me know if there is a better way to quickly check my VPN status.

Thanks! That is exactly what I was looking for. Success
Now I just need to clean it up and make it look a little nicer.
