There are several ways to connect and interact with a Core Lightning node in order to build a lightning app or integrate lightning in your application.
|
|
|
|
- Using **[JSON-RPC commands](doc:json-rpc)** if you're building an application in the same system as the CLN node.
|
|
- Using **[REST APIs](doc:rest)** if you're building an application in a remote client and want to connect to the CLN node over a secure network using REST interface.
|
|
- Using **[gRPC APIs](doc:grpc)** if you're building an application in a remote client and want to connect to the CLN node over a secure network using gRPC interface.
|
|
- Using **[Commando](doc:commando)** to connect to a CLN node over the lightning network and issue commands.
|
|
- Using **[WSS Proxy](doc:wss-proxy)** to connect to a CLN node over web secure socket proxy.
|
|
- Third-party libraries that offer **[JSON over HTTPS](doc:third-party-libraries#json-over-https)** or **[GraphQL](doc:third-party-libraries#graphql)** (deprecated) frameworks to connect to a CLN node remotely.
