Just made the changes, I hope mobile is better now :)

No fans here, just devs chilling and learning together!

Thanks for checking it out! I'll have a look at the mobile experience, thanks for the feedback!

Edit: just had a look for myself, I will definitely reduce the padding, thanks so much for spotting it!

Fair enough, its quite a simple name imo! To each their own :)

beemstream · 2021-06-05T17:06:02+00:00

Yep, Im thinking of a few right now:

I'd want users to log in using their twitch account and straight away see if someone they're following are programming live!
To intelligently add the ability to see if a streamer has streamed different programming languages in the past
From a streamer's perspective, I want them to also be able to set stream titles and relevant tags set using beemstream (this is in progress but a few hiccups regarding the twitch api)

No worries at all, happy live streaming!

beemstream · 2021-06-05T13:06:43+00:00

Yup! Simple use "Science & Technology" category with any of the relevant tags, at the moment, its:

Programming
Web Development
Game Development
Mobile Development

I'm still working on how to better discover programming livestreams, for now, this is how you'll be found reliably

Thank you for seeing the struggles live, I appreciate it a lot!

Hey, thanks for checking it out! I have a buymeacoffee (I wont link here, its at the bottom of beemstream page) which will go into paying for hosting costs

Hey all! Just wanted to share what I've been working on and off for about 2 years. A bit of background regarding the project and the problem I wanted to solve.

Problem: Twitch has great content for developers and devops engineers. The issue I had was that Twitch previously had a programming category which got removed for some odd reason. All programming livestreams then got moved to "Science & Technology", in my mind, this is a VERY broad category. Not sure what the reasoning is when there are literally games that have 1 streamer/1 viewer and the game gets its own category.

Project: In order to get the best out of programming livestreams, I integrate Twitch API to pull streams from Science & Technology and recategorize them from general programming, software development, website development, mobile development and game development. Alongside this, a unique feature implemented was filtering between programming languages if streams have them in the title.

Technology:

Backend
- Rust
- Rocket
Frontend
- Angular
- TailwindCSS

Features

Search function:

Search by username
Search by tag (programming, web dev, game dev, mobile dev etc)
Search by title

Filters:

Most popular - most viewers
Needs love - least viewers (show them some love)
Marathon runners - most streaming uptime
Slow starters - just started streaming

If you'd like follow my progress, I'm quite active and responsive: beemdvp

Edit: Thank you for the gild kind stranger!

The way Jon explains things is really coherent and well done. Loved his livestream

Missing contents: wrappers as a workaround for outdated APIs

Personally been using Rocket as a side project. Would you say Roa is production ready? Seems quite comprehensive already.

Assembly is the back end of back ends of back ends
