Open Source Twitch Documentation
Twitch has one of the most intelligent and tech savvy user bases of any product I can think of. If Twitch were to make their documentation source code Open Source, members of the community that are tech savvy enough will do your job for you.
I just went through the documentation when trying to figure out how to make my first banner and my first Video Player Banner. I am unaware of what a "Video Player Banner" as someone that does not normally watch much Twitch but is attempting to start to learn more about it.
As someone that works…

Unclear extensions documentation
A few of the elements on the extensions documentation (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference/) are very confusing, especially in the Bits section. For example:
in getProducts, it looks like
amount
andtype
are fields directly in the product object, when they are in fact part of thecost
object within it (the Cost type is not defined anywhere else)in window.Twitch.ext.bits.onTransactionComplete, the
product
field of theTransactionObject
is said to be a string, but its description says "If set to true, will contain “inDevelopment”. Otherwise it return blank". How can it be set to true if it is a string? Also, from…

Followed list to indicate subscription
In your list of followed streamers, you can see which ones you have a gift subscription to. It would be great to see which channels you subscribe to in this list as well.

Where is the name listed?
"Set Name to your application's name. The name must be unique among all Twitch apps. Your app's name is listed on the Connections page under Other Connections if your app requires user consent to access or modify the user's resources." I do not understand where the name is listed, when I am on the page on which the link sends me there is not that.

Typo
There's a typo on the "Running the bot" section of this page: https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/irc/get-started
The last word of the "The bot is running locally..."
It's supposed to be dice, i guess.

"Make your first call" Example not working in the documentation
In the get started page (https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/get-started) using the code provided in the "Make your first call" paragraph is not working (and also the first request to get the access token), the returned error is:
"URL using bad/illegal format or missing URL"
The error is caused by the use of the single quotation mark (') instead of the double (").
I don't know if this is a Windows limitation or something wrong with my curl version (latest from the curl project https://curl.se/windows/) but I think that this should be corrected or at least mentioned, because I wasted half…

Wrong description in Create Prediction
Description of 'outcomes' in 'Create Prediction' says that array size must be 2. Isn't the current limit between 2 and 10?

Rate limits with different status between channels
This is related to the "Rate limits" section :
What if a bot joins 2 channels, but only has mod status in 1 of them ?
Will the messages limit be 20 for both channels ?
Or will it be 20 for the channel where the bot doesn't have mod status and 100 for the channel where the bot has mod status ?

PubSub docs mention "relatime viewer count", but no such topic is present
The Introduction section mentions "pushing real-time viewer count updates to video players", but the Topic section mentions of no such way. This is just tiny bit confusing.

Diagrams not being rendered
It looks like the diagrams/visualizations for this page are not being rendered for some reason. I'm not sure how that happens, but instead of diagrams, I'm seeing raw code that looks like it should work with Mermaid to render the diagrams. This is what I am seeing:
%% ext-twitch.tv graph TD ext-twitch.tv --> my-extension.ext-twitch.tv ext-twitch.tv --> your-extension.ext-twitch.tv

Fix misleading example using CLI to test EventSub handler
The example for using the CLI to test your handler shows a secret that looks like a 32-byte hexadecimal string. Actually the CLI interprets it as an ASCII string, so the example is actually passing a 64-byte string for the secret. I found this very misleading and it took me a bit of time to figure out why my code was not computing the correct HMAC until I realized that the format the CLI expects is ASCII string not hexadecimal string.

Create EventSub Subscription Wrong Response Code
On the documentation for creating an eventsub subscription the page claims a success response should have a status code of 201, but the actual status code returned on success is 202.
Either the documentation should be changed to refled the API, or the API changed to reflect the documentation.
