    You can now try out the Elgato Marketplace.

    Last week the streaming tech company quietly announced on Discord that its new webstore for overlays, badges, and Stream Deck Icons is now in beta.

    It seems there are a few bugs to iron out (I couldn’t get anything that was supposedly “installed” to actually appear on my own Stream Deck) but hopefully the rollout indicates that a full release won’t be too far behind.
