How can I add myself and others to the directory?

whitep4nth3r commented 2 years ago

Hello! I'll be opening up PRs on launch day (March 8th). Full instructions will be in the README by then!

raae commented 2 years ago

Okey, cool! Let me know if I can help in any way.

Oh!!! I've just noticed that this is not women of jamstack...!!

Let me know your twitch username and I'll add you to the Contentful database 😅

whitep4nth3r commented 2 years ago

Basically it all works by adding a twitch username to Contentful. You can also provide a YouTube link, Twitter link and website link.

The site isn't completely bug free right now and is prone to being a bit weird, and it's on my list to fix at some point...

Although... you stream on YouTube don't you? We don't currently have support for showing the same data for people who don't stream on Twitch I'm afraid.

I think I need to go back to the drawing board with this site and completely rewrite it in the same way I am building women of jamstack.

I have a lot of functionality to show when people are online/offline and update the stream thumbnail etc. But maybe it's not necessary, and in making things simpler it would open up the directory for people who stream elsewhere.

You could keep the functionality for the twitchers and then add it for YouTubers after the fact. I have done quite a bit with the YouTubeAPI and could see if I could figure it out. I plan to add similar functionality to my own site anyways and could bump up the timeline for that.
