Python SDK

The Python SDK provides a simple interface that makes it easy to integrate a self-custodial Lightning wallet into any Python application, or create and manage a wallet interactively via a Python REPL.

Rust SDK

The Rust SDK is our most advanced SDK, ideal for building secure, reliable, high-performance applications.

Sidecar SDK

The Sidecar SDK lets you build Lightning-powered apps in any language. It runs a local webserver that proxies REST requests to your Lexe node, so you can integrate Lightning payments using only HTTP calls.
