This project was bootstrapped with create-react-app

Objective: Build a CodePen.io app that is functionally similar to this: https://codepen.io/freeCodeCamp/full/Myvqmo/.

Fulfill the below user stories. Use whichever libraries or APIs you need. Give it your own personal style.

  1. User Story: I can see whether freeCodeCamp is currently streaming on Twitch.tv.
  2. User Story: I can click the status output and be sent directly to the freeCodeCamp's Twitch.tv channel.
  3. User Story: if a Twitch user is currently streaming, I can see additional details about what they are streaming.

Hint: See an example call to Twitch.tv's JSONP API at http://forum.freecodecamp.org/t/use-the-twitchtv-json-api/19541.

Hint: The relevant documentation about this API call is here: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/v5/reference/streams/#get-stream-by-user.

Hint: Here's an array of the Twitch.tv usernames of people who regularly stream: ["ESL_SC2", "OgamingSC2", "cretetion", "freecodecamp", "storbeck", "habathcx", "RobotCaleb", "noobs2ninjas"]

UPDATE: Due to a change in conditions on API usage explained here Twitch.tv now requires an API key, but we've built a workaround. Use https://wind-bow.glitch.me/twitch-api instead of twitch's API base URL (i.e. https://api.twitch.tv/kraken ) and you'll still be able to get account information, without needing to sign up for an API key.

Remember to use Read-Search-Ask if you get stuck. When you are finished, click the "I've completed this challenge" button and include a link to your CodePen. You can get feedback on your project by sharing it with your friends on Facebook.
