## What it is
A Node.js client library for the Twitter API supporting both REST and Streaming endpoints. It handles OAuth authentication, posting tweets, media uploads, searches, and consuming the public/user streams.

## Use cases
- post tweets from a node script
- search twitter for tweets containing a keyword
- stream tweets in real time
- upload images and attach them to tweets
- get follower ids for a twitter user
- build a twitter bot

## When to avoid
- you need Twitter API v2 endpoints, which this library does not support
- you need an actively maintained library with recent updates and official support
- you work outside Node.js
