We're working on creating similar documentation for all other implementations. If you'd like to contribute documentation for an implementation, please see the [contribution guidelines]({{ site.baseurl }}/community/).

## Implementation Features
125
-
126
-
All implementations provide the following features:
127
-
128
-
-**Multiple Encryption Modes**: Support for `ipcrypt-deterministic`, `ipcrypt-nd`, and `ipcrypt-ndx`
129
-
-**IPv4 and IPv6 Support**: Uniform handling of both address types
130
-
-**Format Preservation**: Deterministic mode preserves IP address format
-**Test Vector Compliance**: Verified against the specification's test vectors
133
-
134
-
## Choosing an Implementation
135
-
136
-
Thanks to IPCrypt's consistent approach, all implementations provide identical cryptographic guarantees and functionality. This means you can choose an implementation based primarily on practical considerations rather than security differences:
137
-
138
-
1.**Language Compatibility**: Choose an implementation that integrates well with your existing codebase
139
-
2.**Performance Requirements**: Some implementations (like C and Rust) may offer better performance
140
-
3.**Platform Constraints**: Consider browser compatibility, memory usage, and deployment environment
141
-
4.**Feature Needs**: All implementations support the core features, but some may offer additional utilities
142
-
5.**Maintenance Preferences**: Consider your team's familiarity with the language and ecosystem
143
-
144
-
The beauty of IPCrypt's design is that you can switch between implementations as your needs evolve, without changing the underlying security properties or encryption results.

152
-
- API documentation
153
-
- Advanced usage patterns
154
-
- Performance considerations
155

## Creating a New Implementation
158
-
159
-
If you'd like to create an implementation in a language not currently supported, please follow these guidelines:
160
-
161
-
1. Implement all three encryption modes as specified in the document
162
-
2. Verify your implementation against the test vectors
163
-
3. Document your API and provide usage examples
164
-
4. Submit your implementation to the [GitHub repository]({{ site.github_repo }})
165
-
166
-
### Documentation Template
167
-
168
-
To ensure consistency across implementation documentation, we recommend creating a documentation page with the following structure:
169
-
170
-
1.**Overview**: Brief description of the implementation
171
-
2.**Installation**: How to install or include the implementation
172
-
3.**Requirements**: Dependencies and system requirements
173
-
4.**Usage Examples**: Code samples for all three encryption modes
174
-
5.**API Reference**: Detailed method descriptions
175
-
6.**Implementation Details**: Technical information about the implementation
176
-
7.**Performance Considerations**: Guidance on optimizing for different use cases
177
-
8.**Test Vectors**: Information on verifying the implementation
178
-
9.**License**: Licensing information
179
-
180
-
You can use the [Python implementation documentation]({{ site.baseurl }}/implementations/python/) as a reference. For detailed guidance on creating a new implementation, see the [contribution guidelines]({{ site.baseurl }}/community/).
