§03 · TALKS & PANELS
The Lightning Development Kit (LDK) lets developers efficiently build Lightning applications. LDK is a comprehensive, open-source Lightning implementation used by dozens of projects including Lightspark, Mutiny, Cash App, and BitKit. Conor Okus will outline the SDK's capabilities, LDK Node, Lightning Network services compatible with LDK, and the current development roadmap.
LDK Node is a ready-to-go Lightning node implementation based on LDK. It wraps the full suite of LDK APIs and provides a simpler API so you can get started quickly. In this interactive workshop, you'll learn how to use LDK Node to set up a simple Lightning node with a BDK-based on-chain wallet and blockchain access via Esplora. At the start of the workshop, we'll generate a lightning invoice on regtest that will expire before the lesson finishes. The first one to pay with their newly built node wins the race!
