RT (name pending)

A Twitch frontend written in Rust using SvelteKit and Tauri.

zfg1 playing OOT. Chat on Copium for Prime 4.

paganmars playing Monster Hunter Wilds. An excelent use of screen space with PiP.

This is not meant to be a replacement for the official Twitch app/site, some features (account login, send chat messages, etc) are not implemented and not in the scope of this project.

Features

• Watch streams in any of the available resolutions.
• View chat with 7tv and BetterTTV emotes support.
• WIP ad blocking.
• Get basic information such as viewer count, stream title, current game, hours streaming.
• Replace https with rt in a stream URL to open the app and save the user.

Download

Only installers are available for now and all (exe, deb, rpm) are provided in the same zip file.

Quick download.

Github Actions builds are available here.

TODO

• Add global Twitch emotes.
• Add persistent settings (save stream resolution, volume, etc).
• Try rt on other desktops.
• Move to structs for gql query and responses.
• Somehow make proxy work with invoke/another method that doesn't require a local server, might require parsing the m3u8 in the frontend.
• Use Tauri's channels to notify more events, like when the stream has been switched to a backup one and more.
• Try to reduce as much as possible the amount of requests made to Twitch.
• Fix join_chat errors when hard refreshing the page while in a chat.
