AutoLoop makes it easy to keep your channels balanced. Checkout our [autoloop documentation](https://docs.lightning.engineering/advanced-best-practices/advanced-best-practices-overview/autoloop) for details.
For more information about using Loop checkout our [Loop FAQs](./docs/faqs.md).
## Development
### Regtest
To get started with local development against a stripped down dummy Loop server
running in a local `regtest` Bitcoin network, take a look at the
[`regtest` server environment example documentation](./regtest/README.md).
### Testnet
To use Loop in testnet, simply pass the network flag:
```
loopd --network=testnet
```
### Submit feature requests
The [GitHub issue tracker](https://github.com/lightninglabs/loop/issues) can be
used to request specific improvements or report bugs.
### Join us on Slack

## LND
Note that Loop requires `lnd` to be built with **all of its subservers**. Download the latest [official release binary](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/releases/latest) or build `lnd` from source by following the [installation instructions](https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md). If you choose to build `lnd` from source, use the following command to enable all the relevant subservers:
```
make install tags="signrpc walletrpc chainrpc invoicesrpc"
