Best practices, tips and tricks
Sourced from our developers, streamers and viewers on Twitch.
-
Amplify the streamer's broadcast
First and foremost, fans come to Twitch to engage with broadcasters. If broadcasters find that an extension will help grow their channels, they are more likely to install it.
-
Make video interactions obvious but not distracting
Use subtle cues to alert users they can interact with on-stream extensions, but don't use blinks or other animations that would distract from the viewing experience.
-
Put your best foot forward in the Extensions Directory
The Twitch Extensions directory showcases all Extensions available to broadcasters, letting them see examples of each extension as it would appear on their channels as a panel, video overlay, or video component.
