The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

i2p simple messenger
There is already one here. If you are skilled with C++, then you can take it as a basis. Or just look at how the implementation example.

i2p client-server app
When it comes to development I'm a noob but you can create a Standard server tunnel in the tunnel manager for something like tcp and connect with its b32 address, or try SAM. https://geti2p.net/en/docs/api/samv3

confused about different I2P b32 address formats
which one is used in SAM v3.1 protocol?
- I2p Forums? How to proxy other traffic through I2p?

State of i2p applications
There are routers in Java and C++ right now. I am better equipped to support Java router users. Many applications can simply be forwarded into I2P from a server, configured to answer requests that come from I2P, just like an .onion service on Tor more or less. For more sophisticated apps, hooking an external I2P router(one that is already installed and running) using the SAMv3 API offers more flexibility. There are dozens of SAMv3 API libraries for dozens of languages, like 5 in python, at least 4 in Go, at least 2 in Rust, at least 1 in Ruby, at least one in Typescript, there are a bunch. I'm a Go developer sometimes and I've put a ton of effort into making the Go libraries exceptionally easy to use, onramp is as easy as I can make I2P application development in Go at this time(and it's pretty easy). I'm way less good at Python and/or C++.

Python and i2p
i2plib supports 3.1 which is good enough to do most kinds of apps. The difference among the versions can be seen here: https://geti2p.net/en/docs/api/samv3

i2pool. Is it something you'd like to see?
This is the library for C: https://github.com/i2p/libsam3 and this is the library for C++ https://github.com/i2p/i2psam, ping me if you need any help.
What are some alternatives?
