@ -8,6 +8,19 @@ This version of Lnd is not yet fully-operational, but a proof of concept on test
Don't try to port it to mainnet or an altcoin and use it today! No really. Lightning transactions will be fast, but for now, please wait just a little bit.
## Installation
* If necessary, install Go according to the installation instructions here: http://golang.org/doc/install. It is recommended to add `$GOPATH/bin` to your `PATH` at this point.
* Run the following command to obtain and install lnd, lncli, lnshell and all dependencies:
```
go get -u -v github.com/LightningNetwork/lnd/...
```
Feel free to disregard any errors/warnings related to the lnstate and uspv packages.
## Packages and Utilities
### chainntfs
A package centered around a generic interface for receiving transaction/confirmation based notifications concerning the blockchain. Such notifications are required in order for pending payment channels to be notified once the funding transaction gains a specified number of confirmations, and in order to catch a counter-party attempting a non-cooperative close using a past commitment transaction to steal funds.
