Good to see you here! It means you are #BuildingOnBitcoin. We know these docs aren't full, described and extensive. We will appreciate any feedback, contribution or even a question.
If you can't find what you need here or at the Developer Portal - then Contact us!and ask us! We will be happy to help you in your creators journey.

Alby Community Chat (Telegram)
For an overview of all our tools, APIs, endpoints, and an onboarding guide, try the Alby developer portal. You'll need an Alby account to access it!
At Alby we build on open standards. Alby exposes a number of javascript objects to the browser, which can be used to interact with bitcoin onchain (WebBTC), bitcoin lightning (WebLN), Nostr, Liquid, and more.
If you want to power your web or mobile app with bitcoin and want to offer payments directly in the app, have a look at the Alby Wallet API. It allows native payment experiences for users. As a web developer, you can entirely focus on your app. Alby covers your back and does the payment processing for you.
Have a look at the Alby Wallet API documentation:
You can request invoices from your Alby lightning address and use Lightning Tools to verify whether a payment has been made in order to execute additional logic.
You can send payments using your personal Alby account using Nostr Wallet Connect or the LndHub API.
Customize the Alby experience and provide meta data to Alby interactions on your website.
We publish all kinds of bounties for developers, designers and content creators. Have a look if you want to hunt or fund one of the bounties.
