Lightning HackSprint May 2020

The Lightning Hacksprint is an online event aimed at improving the Lightning Network. Following the spirit of the "Lightning Hackday", the focus will be on contributing to already existing Lightning Network projects. It's mostly coding, but also testing and media documentation (e.g. tutorials, moderated discussions, etc.) is very welcome.

This Wiki was created to collect all important information around the event and for the later documentation of outcomes. Feel free to create your own project subpage.
