      1 TWITCHAPON - [Twi]tch [Cha]nnel [Po]ints Rewards Redemption Listener
      2 
      3 Daemon/server that uses PubSub websockets for subscribing to Twitch channel
      4 points redemption events. Events can be proxied as http-requests further into
      5 other (local) service that handles rendering for a twitch overlay or smth.

      7 Authorization mechanism for that kind of stuff is somewhat tricky - you have
      8 to use a full-fledged OAuth process to get an auth token, it involves opening
      9 web-browser to click an "allow" button and to move through (javascript-based)
     10 redirects properly. Thankfully we can use a locally started server as a final
     11 vantage point that receives and processes the verification code.

     15 The only external requirement is x/net/websocket library.

     17 Project was born as a quick hack to play around with Go and try out some
     18 interaction possibilities for twitch streams.
