Exploring Programmatic Payments with Bitcoin and Lightning

Hey everyone, I’m new to this whole bitcoin thing but I wanna try making payments using the Lightning Network with code. I mostly code in NodeJs and Python. My plan is to set up my own Lightning Node and interact with it. I found this library called pylightning but I need more help getting started. Anyone got tips or resources for programming with Lightning in NodeJs or Python?

Check out the API docs for lnd, they’re super helpful. You can find them online. And also, look into clightning documentation, it might have what you need to dive deeper into it. Both of those should give you a solid foundation to start building your own stuff.

Thanks a bunch for the links! I’ll definitely check them out. If anyone has more resources or articles, please share. I really want to get a good grasp on this.
