During the stream we...

āœ” took a few minutes to get everything up and running cuz what hte heck is going on i got home from work late and im so disoriented šŸ˜Ø
āœ” set up the project and started outlining the tutorial
āœ” jigo ate almonds on mic and i wanted to die
āœ” was then sent unsolicited door pics (r00d)
āœ” finished writing the first draft of the tutorial
āœ” tested and reviewed the tutorial.. so far so good!
āœ” put some polish on the tutorial and edited a bit more
āœ” remembered i forgot do kit.com setup & post.. gotta do that soon!
āœ” and then i remembered forgot to do laundry.. AGAIN!
āœ” published draft to dev & reviewed
āœ” chat helped a ton with typos & grammer! ty!
āœ” signed off and raided InGameAsylum.. amazing stream production!

We also came up with some ideas...

  • Doing a git/repo basics stream
  • Advanced topics w/TwitchIO like wrapping event_message and other listeners in decorators so we can use them like @bot .commands - @meortel
