=========

The following guide will get you up and running with a lightning node and walk you through opening your first channel.
|
|
|
|
.. toctree::
|

:maxdepth: 1
|
|
|
|
lightning-first-channel
|
|
|
|
Now that you're up and running, it's time to connect an interface so that you can use your node to make and receive payments from anywhere!
|
|
|
|
If you're using **Core Lightning (CLN)** and would like a direct connection you can select one of the following options:
|
|
|
|
.. toctree::
|
|
:maxdepth: 2
|
|
|
|
connecting-cln
|
|
|
|
If you're using **LND**, you can select one of the following options:
|
|
|
|
.. toctree::
|
|
:maxdepth: 2
|
|
|
|
connecting-albyhub
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. toctree::
|
|
:maxdepth: 2
|
|
|
|
connecting-lnd
|
|
|
|
If you would like to connect to LND via Lightning Node Connect **(LNC)** in order to avoid using Tor, you can do so with Alby and Zeus via the Lightning Terminal service:
|
|
|
|
.. toctree::
|
|
:maxdepth: 2
|
|
|
|
connecting-lndc
|
|
|
|
If you'd like to allocate only a portion of your lightning node's liquidity to a wallet or have a wallet that can receive but not make payments, you can use **LNbits** - LNbits allows you to create a wallet that makes use of your node with only an alloted amount of sats and it works with both **Core Lightning** and **LND**.
