A Feathercoin full node for building applications and services with Node.js. A node is extensible and can be configured to run additional services. At the minimum a node has an interface to Feathercoin Core with additional indexing for more advanced address queries. Additional services can be enabled to make a node more useful such as exposing new APIs, running a block explorer and wallet service.
git clone https://github.com/FeatherCoin/feathercore-node.git

Note: For your convenience, we distribute feathercoind binaries for x86_64 Linux. Upon npm install, the binaries for your platform will be downloaded into the bin directory. For more detailed installation instructions, or if you want to compile the project yourself, then please see the Bitcore branch of Feathercoin Core with additional indexing.

Feathercore includes a Command Line Interface (CLI) for managing, configuring and interfacing with your Feathercore Node.
./bin/feathercore-node create mynode
cd mynode
../bin/feathercore-node install <service>
../bin/feathercore-node install https://github.com/yourname/helloworld
This will create a directory with configuration files for your node and install the necessary dependencies. For more information about (and developing) services, please see the Service Documentation.
There are several add-on services available to extend the functionality of Bitcore:
- Upgrade Notes
- Services
- Development Environment - Guide for setting up a development environment
