Summary

Overlay the Twitch.tv live chat with Chatterino, bringing the native performance and features of Chatterino to the website. Have the same experience chatting no matter if you are watching or are in offline chat.

We use events and data provided by the browser to overlay a native Chatterino window over the browser. The information includes the channel in which the user is in, as well as the size of the chat. Changing the tab or closing a window causes the Chatterino application to hide/show the window. Chatterino tracks the position and z-level of the Browser window and moves itself accordingly.

NOTE:

  • This extension only works on Windows.
  • We need to overlay a native window over the browser window which is tricky by design and may not work for you setup.

Doesn't work with "Twitch™ Adblock Plus"
by ADHD ADHD, 2024-01-21

unfortunately it cant run as its own window. when you close the main window itll close the browser one too. a bigger issue is that the panel in back that says "chatterino should be here" is too wide. it leaves a blank space on the right of the chat, and on top of the chat (though i do have the bit leaderboards and stuff hidden so maybe thats something that cant be addressed)
