Setting up your stream

1. Open http://localhost:5000/.
2. Click the "Add First! to Twitch" button at the bottom.
3. In the Twitch UI, allow the login. This should redirect you to your First! settings dashboard (http://localhost:5000/manage.html).
4. Under "Have First! create your first channel point reward automatically", choose a channel point cost then press "Create reward".

A new channel point reward titled "first" should now be enabled for your Twitch stream. It will automatically be changed to "second" or "third" as appropriate.

After viewers redeem the "first", "second", or "third" rewards, you can see how cool they are by looking at the leaderboards:

1. Open http://localhost:5000/.
2. Click your stream's name in the leaderboard.
