Small broadcasting suite for Twitch, includes:
- Simple way to build stream overlays with minimal code
- Loyalty points system with redeems and community goals
- Twitch chat integration with custom commands
- Support for Twitch alerts and channel point redeems<sup>1</sup>
<sub>1. Requires external tool hosted somewhere</sub>
**Note:** some technical/coding experience is currently required to be able to use this effectively, see the technical overview below for more information.
## Getting started
Download the latest build from here: [github.com/strimertul/strimertul/releases/latest](https://github.com/strimertul/strimertul/releases/latest)
Start `strimertul.exe` and as soon as it's ready it will open a browser window with the Web UI you can use to configure it to your heart's content.
You can also build the project yourself, refer to the Building section below.
## Technical overview
Strimertül is a single executable app that provides the following:
- HTTP server for serving static assets and a websocket API
- Twitch bot for handling chat messages and providing custom commands
- Polling-based loyalty system for rewards and community goals
At strimertul's core is [Kilovolt](https://github.com/strimertul/kilovolt), a pub/sub key-value store accessible via websocket. You can access every functionality of strimertul through the Kilovolt API. Check [this repository](https://github.com/strimertul/kilovolt-clients) for a list of officially supported kilovolt clients (or submit your own). You should be able to easily build a client yourself by just creating a websocket connection and using the [Kilovolt protocol](https://github.com/strimertul/kilovolt/blob/main/PROTOCOL.md).
Check out the [project's wiki](https://github.com/strimertul/strimertul/wiki) for more information on how to use the API to interact with strimertul.
## Building
You need to build the frontend first!
```sh
cd frontend
npm i
npm run build
```
Once that's done, just build the app like any other Go project
```sh
go build
```
