The Miles & More Backend powers the ultimate interactive flight simulation experience on Twitch. Built on modern Node.js and Fastify, this server orchestrates real-time IRC chat commands, manages flight telemetry, and handles job scheduling—all tightly integrated with Twitch and lightning-fast Redis storage.

• Twitch Integration Core: Full IRC chat bot, user lookups, and Twitch API interactions.
• Real-Time Data Pipelines: Handles live SimLink aviation telemetry ingestion.
• Automated Scheduling: Upstash QStash and local pollers for boarding flows and lifecycle management.
• Robust API Engine: Lightweight Fastify endpoints serving the web frontend.

npm install

Copy the example environment variables and adjust them to your Twitch and Upstash configurations:

cp .env.example .env

Use a single Twitch Developer Application for all OAuth flows:

• TWITCH_APP_CLIENT_ID / TWITCH_APP_CLIENT_SECRET are the only application credentials.
• TWITCH_BOT_ACCESS_TOKEN / TWITCH_BOT_REFRESH_TOKEN belong to the bot Twitch account and must be issued for that same application.

Start the backend locally (listens on http://localhost:3001 or your configured PORT):

npm run dev
