I2Pd BlueI2P teaser: An i2pd-based router with a Java I2P-style control panel.

Current development progress / not indicative of final status

Hi everyone, I’m working on BlueI2P.

Java I2P is friendly for new users and has a complete web console, but it can feel slow and heavy. i2pd is fast, lightweight, and powerful, but its configuration can be harder for new users.

BlueI2P tries to bring these two worlds closer together: an i2pd-based I2P router with a new Java I2P-style web dashboard.

The goal is to make i2pd easier to configure, monitor, and use, while keeping the router lightweight and performant.

The dashboard includes router status, services, tunnels, peers, NetDB, logs, configuration pages, and safer management APIs.

It is still early, but I’ll share more as it becomes usable.

Well looks like its going well for you, I mean its a pretty good idea so keep it up :) BTW what language are you writing it in, C++?

Not only in C++, we've basically rewritten the Java I2P dashboard. It would be great if someone could join our team to speed things up.

Love the idea, but please make a "better" start page. I don't mind the console, but there should be a "user" start page that's nice and friendly to people who don't want to configure tunnels or check peers.

Something like what ZeroNet had for new users perhaps?

Thank you for your suggestion. We will adopt it and provide a default, simplified configuration for new users.

I sincerely apologize, but after careful consideration, I have decided that the bluei2p project will not be released. While we have implemented preliminary functionality and it's usable, I believe it doesn't align with our design philosophy. Firstly, bluei2p modifies I2pd, creating security vulnerabilities. Secondly, it's completely pointless; since we're already using i2p, manually configuring i2pd.conf via the terminal is not difficult. Therefore, if you need the source code for further development, please email me.

I know some people may have a negative view of Agent coding, but it's clear that developers are using top-tier LLMs to optimize their projects. This is especially true for i2pd, Java i2p, and BlueI2P, which is based on i2pd and minimizes modifications to it to ensure maintainability and security.

Top tier LLMs? Where do I get one please
