Disclaimer

This swap tool and the UI is highly experimental.
One could easily have his funds "stuck". Only use with small amounts, this tool is not for "the average Joe" for now.

The author takes no responsibility

This project is not finished, it lacks unit testing and this tool written by a Golang newbie :)
I still need to do a lot of refactoring & cleaning up the code base. It's far from finished but it works :)

Feel free to create pull requests and help improving.

API

The atomic swap tool comes with an API so others can build on top of it or for example host the atomic swap server and let users connect externily and preferably connect to their own host.

One could also host the atomic swap server as a site. (Users may have to "trust" which defeats the purpose a bit but it's doable)

API documentation will be added later.
