Question stream code basics

im not a coder by any stretch of the imagination but I want to potentially utilize code in my own streams every so often similarly to doug or failboat (but not the exact same stuff so not things like code from his website). i have no idea where to start or how to get chat messages/commands to do things on stream, in obs, etc. so if anyone has any pointers that would be amazing. im willing to learn some basic coding if necessary and im sorry if this is a silly question 😭

Doug uses python, I'd look up the python twitch API. (If you don't know python, do a basic tutorial online before trying anything with twitch)

Doug's "can I teach my friends to code in 1 hour" sounds perfect for you
