This project uses AI

I’ve used AI tools to speed up development, as this platform keeps getting bigger and keeps having more moving parts i can’t manage by myself.
Some HQ projects also want to use the platform and demand certain features to be implemented fast, so AI helps me with that.

Shipped this project!

I rewrote the backend to use MediaMTX, migrated to HQ infrastructure, improved chat by adding moderation, supported multiple regions, wrote a Javascript SDK and added observability. Overall, features to make hctv production ready!
I’m not done with the project, just shipping a part of it.
I’m very proud of the reception that hctv has been having lately, and feel humbled to see so many people trying it out! They are the reason why i keep adding features to the platform.

this changelog adds prometheus and grafana to hctv! yay
with help of ai i made a really cool dashboard which is honestly a joy to use. it should hopefully improve the way i maintain the platform when it reaches prod pf
i’m also shipping to see how’s the payout, so please try out the project!

this update is kinda huge, hctv is finally hq sponsored and i’ve also made some admin page improvements. i’ll copy the announcement from #hctv below since it sums it up pretty well:
[…]
this has also merged a huge feature update:
• added moderation (user restrictions and channel bans)
• multi region!!!! (for now there’s HQ A, more third party regions to come)
• ever wanted to create a bot without the annoyances of the api? npm i @hctv/sdk! (ai chatbot with hcai here: https://github.com/SrIzan10/hctv/blob/main/packages/sdk/examples/ai.ts)
• miscellaneous chat fixes
• improved development instructions (thanks @BnaJns for the pr blahaj-heart)
these things should improve devex and stability on the platform. note that some of the features written here were mostly generated by ai, as a small experiment pf (yes, i’ve code reviewed)
[…] we’ll also be using the platform on Flavortown Friday Feast, so stay tuned for more production-ready updates soon.

this adds moderation!
i consider it to be a small claude code test, which ended up pretty good, but of course i had to do my own edits and stuff.

the last devlog logged 4 hours, but apparently it has changed to only 20 minutes? so consider this the time logged for the previous devlog i guess (and also one hour of sdk development, a new update coming soon!)
