Visualize LNPlay

We're hosting this project at lnplay.network. It allows you to connect to one of the LNPlay nodes you deploy and draws a channel graph of all the channels it knows about. Here's an example from one of our largest events.

GitHub - evansmj/cln-node-visualization: Core Lightning channel visualizer. Connect to your node, and see the channel graph. Used in workshops at Unconfiscatable, Bitcoin Atlantis, bitcoin++ Buenos Aires, and more. In conjunction with LNPlay (lnplay.guide).

Special Thanks to Michael Evans for implementing this awesome Channel Graph Visualizer. Consider leaving a tip!
