Hi everybody ... so with all the changed situation, we will do an online "Lightning Hacksprint" instead of the usual "Lightning Hackday". It will be a smaller event, putting more focus 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.
  
Most projects listed their challenges as sprint issues on Github with the lable "hackathon". Simply comment on those that you are interested in and the project mentors should get back to you.
+
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.
  
To participate please register on our [https://mm.fulmo.org Mattermost] (OpenSource Slack) and check if there is already a chat room regarding the project you are interested. In the channel "[https://mm.fulmo.org/fulmo/channels/lightning-hacksprint Lightning HackSprint]" should always be someone around to point you into the right direction if you have any further questions.

===Rust Lightning network node===
 
 
 
Another LN node? Why we need it?
 
 
 
The problem with the existing Lightning node implementations is their very limited extensibility for such things as:
 
 
 
* future LN upgrades (channel factories, pay-to-ec-point, taproot),
 
* protocols on top of LN (layer 3), like [https://hackmd.io/@lpQxZaCeTG6OJZI3awxQPQ/LN-DLC DLCs on LN] or proposed [https://github.com/LNP-BP/lnpbps/issues/24 Lightspeed payments], which require modification on the structure of the commitment transaction.
 
 
 
We will try to build a node that is highly modular and is ready for the future LN extensions. More information here: https://github.com/LNP-BP/lnpd
 
 
 
During the hackathon we will try to:
 
* compose core architecture with non-blocking multithreading
 
* add lightning network wire protocol
 
* implement BOLT-9 (using rust-lightning it should be simple)
 
* implement BOLT-1: do connection to other LN nodes + send/receive `connect`, `ping` & `ping` messages
 
* (optionally) implement gossip protocol

Chatroom to get started: https://mm.fulmo.org/fulmo/channels/x-weenode
 
 
 
===Backup plugin for c-lightning===
 
 
 
Backups are a major issue in the Lightning Protocol, given that any sort of
 
dataloss could potentially result in loss of funds. This means that restoring
 
an old backup of the database could result in the node broadcasting an old
 
state, which is a cheat attempt in the protocol, which is punished.
 
 
 
The backup c-lightning plugin (https://github.com/lightningd/plugins/pull/97)
 
implements the basic mechanisms to create a synchronous backup of
 
any change to the database, and ensures that the backup stays in sync with the
 
database. It does so in a generic way allowing to write backups to a variety
 
of backends, but initially only implements a file-system based backup backend
 
that is located on the same machine, but on a separate disk. Doing so already
 
provides protection against data corruption on the primary disk. Potential
 
future improvements could include:
 
 
 
* Backup to Google services. Examples include:
 
** GDrive
 
** Google Docs - Sheets
 
** Google Cloud Storage
 
* Backup to Dropbox
 
* Send backup data to a peer using the custommsg hook
 
* Backups to a dedicated backup server
 
 
 
In the case of a dedicated backup server the plugin could also manage a
 
subscription that is used to pay for the backup service.

==Adding your Project==
 
 
 
Feel free to add a challenge yourself! The wiki is open to any Bolter (you'll figure out how to edit). If you have a GitHub Repo best practice is to put the label "hackathon" (yellow) next to issues you like people to join/help for the weekend. If you added a challenge please also get in touch on [https://mm.fulmo.org/fulmo/channels/lightning-hacksprint Mattermost] for more information and collaboration.
