Where I'm at now: I've tried installing LND and eclair, but again--neither provide clear instructions on how to install (at least on Windows). Lastly, I've installed the Lightning app using the executable, which has finally worked. But, I don't know if this is a full node or just a Lightning wallet. How would I tell? As far as I can tell the only options are to pay or request sats.
