• Handle lightning: links;
• "Generate invoice here" context menu;
• Manual payments and invoice creation;
• Instant notifications on received payments;
• No window popups, all interactions happen in the browserAction popup.

Requirements

Either

• a lightningd node with a Spark RPC server in front of it;
• an Eclair node with the API enabled and accessible;
• a Ptarmigan node with the REST API Node.js app running.

Caveats

• If you are using Google Chrome, consider enabling the Experimental Extension APIs flag on chrome://flags for a better experience. Read more in this issue.
• If you are using Eclair, the WebSocket won't connect on Firefox, so you won't get notifications when a payment is sent or received, the experience will not be as nice as if it did.
