Overlay Constraints

OBS overlays operate under strict constraints.


Environment Constraints

  • Browser source reloads unexpectedly
  • No persistent storage guarantees
  • Limited debugging
  • Framerate sensitivity

Design Rules

  • No blocking animations
  • All state must be replayable
  • Safe reconnect logic
  • Deterministic layout

Failure Handling

  • Socket disconnect → auto-reconnect
  • Missing data → render nothing
  • Auth failure → silent fallback
