My own streaming site.

The problem

My stream’s schedule, links, OBS scenes and chat commands were set up by hand across separate tools; I wanted them in one place I own.

How it’s built

Four React apps — the public site, the admin dashboard, the OBS overlays and the Studio — served from one origin by nginx, with a Spring Boot API in Docker on a self-hosted server.

Decisions

  • One origin: nginx serves all four apps and proxies the API.

  • Overlays have no fallback, so a mistyped URL fails visibly in OBS.

  • The Studio: a separate door for invited streamers, signed in with Twitch.

  • Discord and Twitch bots run inside the backend.

Outcomes

  • I run my stream’s OBS overlays from it.
  • Invited streamers use the Studio.
  • The schedule, social links, OBS scenes and chat commands and timers are set from the dashboard and the Studio, not by hand.

Features

  • Studio

    The Studio, where the stream’s OBS overlays are built and managed.
