Building a Multi-platform Chat Bot
Calling it a chat bot is a disservice. Connecting to Twitch, YouTube, Discord, Pusher and AMQP, this little bot will become the very core of activity monitoring and user engagement for Astrocasts.
We'll learn the hard way, so you don't have to.

Astrocasts are live broadcasted to three platforms (Twitch, YouTube and Facebook) and we'd like to be able to connect Astrocasts user accounts to these platforms. If you can't get enough of the OAuth dance, or haven't seen it before, this live session project is for you!
Similar to the usual Astrocasts Live Session, Astrocasts After Dark sessions are not scheduled in advance, largely unplanned, may focus on code not talked about before (and may never be talked about again) and may not be recorded for future watching. Fun times!
The very first episodes of Astrocasts were about bootstrapping the Astrocasts site itself. Not even a single line of code. Why does this site look this way? How was it built? All these questions, and more, can be found here! Dogfooding at its finest, and oh so very meta. Enjoy!
For over 4 years, the website for "That Podcast with Beau and Dave" was a static site using Sculpin. This project chronicles the migration from that static Sculpin site to a full-fledged Symfony 4 application.
Seeing the job done through someone else's perspective is entertaining and insightful.

I love Astrocasts because it takes me OUT of the docs and INTO a real world use case.

I liked that the agenda was prepared but not the code. Screencasts usually feel slow but not this one. It gave me just a few seconds to think about how I would solve the problems. Which is perfect.
