How can i access my home linux mini-pc from the internet, without using port forwarding on my router? (alien.top)

I do have my own web server running centos 7 i could use. I am planning to buy a small mini-pc that will be running home assistant and frigate for recording my camera's and integrating AI detection into my smart home. It seems the best installation for that is debian.

I have a router that is using a wireguard vpn, that does not allow port forwarding, so i need an alternative to access the mini-pc.

Now, of course there's some things to be found when googling, but my preference goes to the most easy-to-use solution as i'm not great with linux, i just mess around digging through configs, copy-pasting instructions and getting stuff done that way. This is why I wanted to ask you guys for advice =)

​

Would appriciate assistance!

Personally I use wireguard on custom port, but you can try Tailscale or zerotier?
