Setup

In order to import videos from YouTube you need:

• Import a stream by providing the video id
• The video needs to be a scheduled live stream in the future

Roadmap

• Backup DB (Laravel Backup)
• RSS Feed
• Better timezone support (using timezone through browser
• Automatically check for updates on stored streams
• Automatically fix styles on PRs (after PR is merged)
• Add Twitter channel import to load its upcoming live streams
• Show when a stream is currently live
• Store the description of a stream too, so we can use it for the calendar
• Calendar link for every event
• Twitter integration (tweet when stream is live)
• Mocking Twitter so we can get off the production check
• Archive with old streams
• Streams of stored channels will be imported automaticall (every hour)
• Pagination for archive page
• Approval flow (planned by Freek)
• Add Twitter tag to Twitter posts about streams that go live (only for stored channels)
• Add search to archive (when archive ready)
