⚡️ Boost your project dependencies via lightning!

How to boost?

Install the package by running

npm i fund-ln-cli

and run it in your project's folder with

npx fund-ln

⌛ It will start analyzing your dependencies using your package.json file:

Send sats to your project's dependencies!
Analyzing your package.json...

🚀 Specify the amount you want to send to these dependencies:

How much do you want to send in total? Amount (in sats): 2100

How to receive sats to your dependencies?

In your package.json file, add the following:

"funding": {
  "type": "lightning",
  "url": "lightning:[e-mail]"
}

This would help fund-ln-cli to pick your lightning address when your dependency users boost you!
