Twitch Flags is a public flag registry designed for Twitch users who want to display a country or territory flag alongside their Twitch identity. By connecting their Twitch account, users can select a flag that supported clients will show next to their name in Twitch chat environments. This feature aims to visually represent users' geographic identities in chat interactions on the platform.
The tool is available as a browser extension for Chrome, enabling the display of country and territory flags beside usernames across Twitch. Users must sign in to associate a flag with their Twitch account, after which the chosen flag appears next to their name in chat. The system relies on the ISO 3166-1 standard for country and territory codes, ensuring consistent flag representation.
Twitch Flags also provides a public API, allowing developers or other services to access flag data associated with Twitch identities. The graphics for the flags are sourced from Twemoji and are licensed under CC BY 4.0. The tool is made by desertice. No information is provided about pricing, additional supported browsers, or further licensing details beyond the flag graphics.
