Twitch Chat Client written in Java
Chatty is a Twitch Chat Client for Desktop written in Java featuring many Twitch specific features.
I learned about most of the Java techniques and APIs used in this during development, so many things won't be designed ideally. I also never released such a project as opensource before, so if I missed anything or didn't adhere to some license correctly, please tell me.
Go to the website for ready to use downloads and more information on the features.
Contributions to Chatty under the terms of the GPLv3 License (or compatible) are welcome.
If you're contributing code that you didn't write yourself, make sure to adhere to whatever license terms it is under (like retaining copyright notices) and to detail that in the Pull Request.
Obviously, I won't be able to accept all contributions, for example I may already be working on something similar. If you plan to put more than a little effort into a Pull Request, consider asking first if what you're doing has a chance of being added.
Chatty, as a whole, is released under the GPLv3 or later (see included
LICENSE
file).
