I want to share with you a project that I've been working on. As a chess enthusiast who got hooked on the game by watching streamers, I wanted to create something that bridges the gap between chess gameplay and streaming. So, I've developed a website that brings together the best of both worlds: Chess.com and Twitch! You can find it at chessvod.com.
What Can You Do on the Website?
Duel Stream Setup: Watch your favourite streamers go head-to-head by seeing both streamers' clips, side by side.
Personalised Experience: Ever played against a streamer? Enter your chess.com nickname and discover clips of your games that were streamed. It's a unique way to see your gameplay from a new perspective.
Enter someone’s else’s name, like Magnus Carlsen, and see how they react when they realise that they are playing against the world champion.
Behind the Scenes:
Integration with Chess.com: The website automatically fetches data about streamers and their games from the chess.com API.
Twitch Video Insights: By integrating Twitch's video details, the site determines if a chess.com game was captured in a streamer's video. This feature allows for a seamless connection between the game and its streamed footage.
What’s next?
Discord Bot Integration: Getting a ping whenever there is a clip where you play against a streamer.
