How to Stream on Twitch
Getting started on Twitch is simpler than it looks. You need broadcast software, a few scenes, and graphics that frame your content. This guide covers the essentials.
1. Choose your software
OBS Studio and Streamlabs Desktop are the two most popular free options. Both let you build scenes, add sources, and broadcast to Twitch, YouTube, and Kick.
2. Build your scenes
Create scenes for gameplay, Starting Soon, BRB, and Offline. Add your camera, gameplay capture, and overlay graphics to each one.
3. Add an overlay and go live
Add a matching overlay package so your channel looks finished from day one. Connect your Twitch account, hit Start Streaming, and you are live.
