SO, we’ve got the hardware side covered, and you’re all ready. You’ve got your idea of what you want to stream, and how often you’re going to dabble with it. Now, let’s get the boring technical software stuff out the way, shall we?

1 TWITCH ACCOUNT SETUP

The first thing you’re going to want to do is create an account on Twitch to get your channel set up and your live streaming underway. Head to www.twitch.tv and click the Sign-Up button. Enter a username (Twitch will let you know if it’s taken, or compatible with their ToS, so no cussin’), and a password. Insert a phone number or use your email address, then enter your date of birth, after which a verification code will be sent to your chosen email. Enter that, and you’re in.
