## Description

This self-custodial Bitcoin Lightning wallet implements Nostr Wallet Connect so users can link their wallet to many compatible applications. It runs as a single-user service with an embedded LDK-based Lightning node by default, but also connects to external Lightning nodes such as LND, CLN, Phoenixd, Cashu, and Bark. The software includes an integrated app store, sub-wallets for family or friends, permission management with spending limits by time period, and automatic swaps between on-chain and Lightning. It supports multiple deployment methods including Docker, binary downloads, desktop apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and cloud providers. The project is open-source under the Apache-2.0 license.
