This tool automates following a desired Twitch channel. To use this tool, Twitch oAuth tokens are required, and need to be pasted in the config/oauth_tokens.txt file. This tool demonstrates how Twitch follow-botting works and how the Twitch API can be abused.
Follow-botting is when a channel is followed by a number of fake accounts. These accounts are usually controlled by a computer or script, such as this one. Artificial engagement and botting limit growth opportunities for legitimate broadcasters and it violates Twitch policies. This tool demonstrates how a follow-bot works and should be used for EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES only.

To get oAuth tokens you can use the converter in the tool. Simply paste the Twitch accounts you want to convert to oAuth tokens in username:password format in config/convert.txt. The output tokens can be found in output/oauth_tokens.txt. Most of the time, this may not work because captcha may be required.
To get oAuth tokens manually, open Chrome dev tools (Ctrl + Shift +I ), head over to the Network tab, follow any twitch account, inspect the http post request (gql) , and check the Authorization header for the token. Copy the whole text after OAuth.
