Introduction
I had been using other program to get notified the start of the broadcast of Twitch channels I
follow. On August 2020, it abruptly stopped working and was broken for more than a month.
I had to do its job by myself, which was quite tiresome to check whether they are live or not. As
a result, that made me develop new browser extension to replace the broken one.
Skills
JavaScript, Webpack 4, Twitch API, Chrome API
Features
- To retrieve the information of the following channels using Twitch API periodically in the background script.
- To notify the start of the broadcast of the channels through a browser notification.
- To show the number of live channels on the extension badge.
- To list the channel names by game on the pop-up window that appears when the badge is clicked.
