Check for WebLN first

If a user has Alby installed you can check for WebLN support first before showing some fallback options (QR codes, copy invoice, etc)

Here is a code example: https://www.webln.guide/building-lightning-apps/best-practices#prioritize-webln-offer-fallback-options

Hi Moritz. Thanks for your suggestion! We've already implemented WebLN support to micropay. I will make this feedback as done for now but let me know if you have any other concerns.

Dillion Verma: That´s cool. It works nicely with WebLN. What I meant was to check if WebLN is enabled: if (window.webln) window.webln.sendPayment else show screen as of now.

Then you would not need to show the screen from the image attached if a WebLN provider is detected.
