This is so cool!
When I catch a few moments of spare time from work and family obligations, I might fork this and integrate it with streamlink-twitch-gui.
Streamlink Twitch GUI has a feature to automatically open a web browser with the selected stream's chat feed. I think an easy mod would be to replace the "open chat in browser" functionality with your terminal feed.
I've been wanting to code something like this from the first time i started using Textual. I guess now i don't have to!
There have been other projects before that did the same thing. I used to use twitch-chat-cli, but now it's broken due to some dependency issue (it's written in JS, npm is a giant dependency hell), so I needed to look for an alternative. Fortunately, I found this project, and it's even written in Rust, which is awesome.
wow i was impressed to see the emote support. how about third party emote support? PauseChamp
It supports BTTV, 7TV and FFZ

thanks! i was just configuring it myself and i saw that! amazing
Unfortunately, I didn't get it to work. Neither in iTerm2, kitty or WezTerm.
it explicitly checks for the environment variable "TERM=xterm-kitty" if that helps.
Bruh, I specifically changed this variable, so I wouldn't have issues with ssh, because it doesn't work with TERM=xterm-kitty
Edit: I figured I could just use a simple alias twt="TERM=xterm-kitty twt" in my shell config to fix this.
