I'm making a web app written in elixir using phoenix liveview, tailwind css and alpine.js that allows twitch streamers to listen to music from youtube or soundcloud along with their communities without having to play the audio directly through their stream, and for viewers to listen along with a streamer. This effectively bypasses twitch's recent dmca enforcement policies, which are what gave me the idea to make this in the first place.

It's not much but (most of) it's mine :)

Currently users can sign in with twitch and play audio locally from youtube urls (using the invidious api, so no google login required) but I work on it whenever I can so it can hopefully become what I described above.

Contributions are more than welcome, although my code is pretty much undocumented and untested (but you could say I'm still in the prototyping stage so there isn't much code to begin with)
