Hi Aleksey, Your biggest obstacle is probably the fact that c-lightning spawns several processes (subdaemons) and depends on the bitcoin-cli binary for bitcoind RPC. If WebAssembly supports multiple processes (not just threads) that's a good start I guess.
There is a c-lightning specific mailing list on https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/c-lightning Cheers, Igor On 12 April 2018 at 16:39, Быхун, Алексей Викторович < aleksey.byk...@phystech.edu> wrote: > Hi everyone! > > I am looking for a way to run a LN node inside the browser.
