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 The official documentation was sparse and existing solutions were outdated.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.
