## What it is
A strongly typed, dependency-free Node.js client for the Twitter API v1.1 and v2, with bundled TypeScript types for requests and responses. It supports streaming, pagination helpers, OAuth2 user-context authentication, and media upload helpers.

## Use cases
- post tweets from a node.js app
- fetch user timelines with the twitter api v2
- stream tweets in real time
- upload images and videos to twitter
- authenticate users with twitter oauth2
- paginate through twitter api results
- build a twitter bot in typescript

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight, zero-dependency twitter client for node.js
- you want full TypeScript typings for twitter api requests and responses
- you need both v1.1 and v2 endpoint support including media upload and streaming

## When to avoid
- you need a client for a platform other than twitter/x
- you are not using node.js or a javascript runtime
- you require active feature development given twitter api policy changes and the project's maintenance stance
