React Lightning Reservation

We are developing a React.JS button which corresponds to a booking of a single-customer event, such as a surfing lesson.

• The user can list the available time slots for each surfing instructor.
• The user can book the selected surfing lesson, which indicates the instructor and the start and end time.
• The booking can be secured via Bitcoin payment via the Lightning Neetwork.
• An Invoice pops up on the screeen as soon as the user clicks on the "Reserve" button.
• The user can point to the QR-code of the Lightning Network invoice or simply copy it.
• As soon as the user completes the payment, the lesson is secured and the reservation is guaranteed with the deposit.

Front end

The Front end is written in JavaScript and uses React.JS.

The React Booking Button is a simeple React functional component can be can be placed anywhere in a React web application, for example in a calendar front end etc.

Back end.

The back end is written in Python.

• It serves the listing of available slots and reservation requests via a simple REST API.
• It connects to the Lightning Network LND node via gRPC to check whether a specific invoice has been paid.

Installation

In addition to the components included in this repository, an Umbrel node is used, which contains a Bitcoin full node as well as an LND Lightning node.
