This repository is designed as a home for those looking to build on lnd. We hope it provides everything you need to get started out of the box, and that if something is missing you'll let us know! |
If the terms "payment channel" and "hash time-locked contract" are foreign to you, it might be best to start with our Conceptual Overview first.
If you're a web developer looking to integrate Lightning into your application, check out our Build Your First Lapp guide.
If you want to run your own node, join the Lightning Pool, and take advantage of tools like Loop and Faraday, Get LiT!
Finally, if you're running a professional service and want to leverage best practices when it comes to APIs, channel backups, key management, et al., we have you covered in Best Practices.
Additional external resources include our Developer Slack, Github organization, API documentation for lnd, loop, and pool.
