🧵 L402 Lightning paywall in 5 lines of TypeScript:
```ts
// 1. Create invoice
const inv = await nwc.makeInvoice({ amount: 1000 });
// 2. Return 402 with WWW-Authenticate header
res.header('WWW-Authenticate', `Lightning invoice="${inv.invoice}"`);
res.status(402).json({ invoice: inv.invoice });
```
Client pays → sends preimage → you verify sha256(preimage)==payment_hash.
