☂️ manager

Manager runs by-default on Umbrel OS as a containerized service. It provides a low-level system API that handles:

• User authentication using JWT
• Encryption/decryption of sensitive information, such as the lightning wallet's seed
• CRUD operations
• Lifecycle-management of all other containerized services

🚀 Getting started

If you are looking to run Umbrel on your hardware, you do not need to run this service on it's own. Just download Umbrel OS and you're good to go.

yarn

⚡️ Don't be too reckless

Umbrel is still in an early stage and things are expected to break every now and then. We DO NOT recommend running it on the mainnet with real money just yet, unless you want to be really #reckless.
