I wrote this code for a job interview, but I didn't get the job so I have made it open-source. It might be a good reference for someone?
Also if you star my github repo I'll pay you 1500 sats.

1. It uses `lndinit` to initialize and/or unlock the LND from a stored secret.
2. Configures LND to use the postgres DB backend
3. It uses ETCD leader election, so you can have a high-availability LND deployment where if one goes down, a second replica, (on a different machine) can take over the Lightning Ops.
4. It runs the Aperture server to create a Lightning Paywall.
I really, really, really want to have a career working with Bitcoin and Lightning, so if you know anyone hiring please send them my way!
