That is exactly what I am leaning towards.

It already runs on my OpenWRT router, and if it is sufficient enough
for that environment, then it has to be small and uncomplicated.

The part that I am not sure of, is that it is also a DHCP server, and
I want to disable that feature, since Wireguard has each peer using
a static IP address that is assigned in Wireguard's configuration files
anyway. Also, I don't want to mess the gateway's internet setup.

Thanks for the links ...

I will watch Lori's presentation.
