+Design Goal
+-----------
The goal is to provide a full-featured but also incredibly flexible lightning
implementation, allowing the user to decide how they wish to use it. With that
dependencies with dependencies. Do convince Andrew to cut down dependency usage
in rust-bitcoin.
-Notes on coding style:
- * Use tabs. If you want to align lines, use spaces. Any desired alignment
- should display fine at any tab-length display setting.
