Telegram.Bot

Why we included this project

C#/.NET teams building Telegram bots usually land here first, and with good reason. Telegram.Bot is a complete client for the Telegram Bot API: you can send messages, respond to commands and callbacks, work with media and inline queries, and keep the whole thing inside an existing .NET codebase. It ships as NuGet packages plus a book-length guide, so going from a basic echo bot to production features like custom keyboards, webhooks, and file handling is a documented path rather than a leap. If you're already on the Microsoft stack, there's no extra runtime to run, which matters when you want to control where the bot lives. It's a library you code against, not a hosted service, so you decide how it scales.
