You can control graphics, layouts, and invite hackers to stream with you. All from the browser. ## **Creating A Broadcast** * Hit the Create a Broadcast button * Select which platforms you’d like to stream to (typically all of them) * Give your broadcast a title that will stand the test of time * “Marbles” is not a good stream title * “Hack at Home Marble Races” is a better stream title * Include a few sentences of description and whatever logistical information you need to in the description * Only use schedule for later if you want hackers to see that we’ll be live at a specific time ## **Pro Tips** * Use a wired internet connection when possible * Make sure you’re in a quiet environment * Get familiar with Streamyard before going live the first time --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
