How Twitch Code Exploded: The History of Software & Game Dev on Twitch, by @t3dotgg youtube.com/watch?v=Pdi9I6kQ…

Hit a new record the other day for the biggest tracked 'live coding' stream so far, with at least 23,949 tuning in for @AWSonAir's Pi Day coverage. Spot the other peaks in this chart that are usually @leonnoel #100Devs streams:

#gamedev recently overtook #javascript as the top tracked topic for #twitch live coding streams, purely based on the number of existing channels I've been adding lately. Other big topics include Learning, React, Python and Unity: streamers.dev/explore

I'm super late to get on the SQL notebook bandwagon, but I just used @counthq (h/t @mattytwoshoes) to build a little stream topic trends analyser with dropdowns for the topics and date ranges

Spot when I started to add lots more gamedev channels. (also trying out @counthq)

Agreed, the data isn't quite there yet, but it's good practice to play around with it more. Here's absolute coding streams per weekday BTW:

Excellent point! Here's the same data as a % of coding streams by weekday. Similar and Sunday still ranks highest

For fun, I took a look at the days of the week when people have 'chill' or 'relax' (in major languages) in their live coding stream title. Not a lot of data there yet, but Sundays seem to be in the lead for relaxed coding sessions on Twitch
