Local Set Up

1. Head up to https://dev.twitch.tv/console/extensions/create and create a new extension. You will need to create a new version: Select Panel, Mobile and Video - Fullscreen for the extension type. Leave all other settings as they are.
2. With the version created, scroll to the bottom and click on View on Twitch and Install. Install the extension on your channel and activate it.
3. Enable allow invalid certificates for resources loaded from localhost in Chrome: chrome://flags/#allow-insecure-localhost If using Firefox, once you have started the development server, you will want to navigate to https://localhost:8080, click advanced and select accept the risk.
4. Copy the .env.sample to .env (which sets HTTPS=true, HOST=localhost, and PORT=8080)
5. Install dependencies for the project with npm install
6. Start the development server with npm start
7. To test the overlay, you will need to be live on Twitch with the extension installed. If you want to use an alternate account, add the account to Testing Account Allowlist under the Access tab of the extension version and install the extension on that account.
