# Lightning Network Curriculum

## What Is This?

While planning the [Chaincode Residency](https://residency.chaincode.com/), we put considerable effort into finding the best resources and creating a curriculum around Lightning protocol development. You can find all of our published materials on our [resources page](https://residency.chaincode.com/resources.html#resources).

Lightning is still a nascent technology, and so we expect maintenance of this document to be an ongoing task. We could use your help. Please **consider opening a pull-request** to keep this document relevant.

There are two portions to this curriculum:

1. [Study Groups](https://github.com/chaincodelabs/study-groups#lightning) designed to provide bite-sized grouped subjects that you can either complete bookclub style or alone.
2. [Lightning Syllabus](##lightning-syllabus) a collection of resources grouped by subjects.

## Lightning Syllabus
