LESSONS LEARNED
Working on Top Twitch Clips was a great experience. In the beginning, I did not even know it was
possible to edit videos using code. Even though the edits are not that big, it was still a great
learning experience. I also strengthened my skills in working with APIs and learned how to download
through the Twitch API and upload with the Google API.
Another important learning was how to manage sensitive information such as API credentials. I initially
disregarded this completely as I was not even sure this would work. I stored them in the code itself or
in json files that were not in the .gitignore file.
Once I saw that this project was actually going somewhere, I started to take security more seriously and
made sure to first of all change all credentials that were committed to the repository and then to store
them in json files that were ignored by git.
