2 Ways to Add Free Twitter Panel to Twitch
Twitch panels are a great way to promote your merchandise while streaming. Mostly, these panels include links to your social media accounts,donation options, merchandise, etc. But Twitch also supports extensions that helps bring the Twitter feed directly to the Twitch panel. That way, instead of just linking to Twitter profile, you may actually display your latest tweets right on Twitch. Here’s how to add Twitter profile and add Twitter panel to Twitch.
