Twitch explained

Twitch is a live-streaming platform where users are able to stream what they are doing in real-time.

Twitch streamers can “broadcast” their gameplay or activity by sharing their screens with subscribers or fans who can hear and watch them play live.

Typically gamers use Twitch to show other users tricks and tips on how to complete levels.

However, Twitch can be used by anyone interested in lifestyle casting about subjects like music or food.

Streams can last anywhere from 60-seconds to eight-hours or longer.

The platform was officially launched in 2011 and since then has amassed millions of users.
