Twitch PubSub Library for Node.js
Created an open source Node.js library for Twitch PubSub with 1000+ weekly downloads, used by Games Done Quick charity streams.
The Challenge
What problem did we solve?
Developers building Twitch integrations needed a simple, reliable way to interact with Twitch's PubSub service for real-time events like subscriptions, bits, and whispers. The official documentation was sparse and existing solutions were outdated.
The Solution
Our approach
Created an open source Node.js library that provides a clean, well-documented API for Twitch PubSub. The library handles WebSocket connection management, authentication, reconnection logic, and event parsing—letting developers focus on building features instead of infrastructure.
API Design

WebSocket Management
Built robust connection handling with automatic reconnection
Documentation
Wrote comprehensive docs and examples for the community
Community Support
Maintained the library and responded to issues for 3+ years
