Best resources for learning about lightning and other LN-powered apps?

3400 sats \ 18 comments \ @josh 31 Aug 2023 bitcoin

I’ve been lurking on this site for a while but only tried out lightning for the first time yesterday. I have to say, wow! The experience has been quite smooth, and login with lightning is incredible. Feels like the future of the Internet.

Are there any great resources for learning about other LN-powered apps / the broader lightning ecosystem? Seems like there’s been a ton of growth recently, and I’d love to read a primer on the current state of the space and all the ways I can use LN today.

Shameless self-promotion, but I write a weekly newsletter that aims at covering exactly this. This week's issue is expected in a few hours.

Grab an old laptop or desktop and spin up a node.

Hands on experience will teach one a lot.

Once you have a node up and running you can browse the app store for different types of apps.
