But there is a lot more beyond +those, made independently by different developers. -Telethon was made for **Python**, and as far as I know, there is no -*exact* port to other languages. However, there *are* other -implementations made by awesome people (one needs to be awesome to -understand the official Telegram documentation) on several languages -(even more Python too), listed below: - -C -= - -Possibly the most well-known unofficial open source implementation out -there by `@vysheng `__, -`tgl `__, and its console client -`telegram-cli `__. Latest development -has been moved to `BitBucket `__. - -C++ -=== - -The newest (and official) library, written from scratch, is called -`tdlib `__ and is what the Telegram X -uses. You can find more information in the official documentation, -published `here `__. - -JavaScript -========== - -`Ali Gasymov `__ made the `@mtproto/core `__ library for the browser and nodejs installable via `npm `__. - -`painor `__ is the primary author of `gramjs `__, -a Telegram client implementation in JavaScript. - -Kotlin -====== - -`Kotlogram `__ is a Telegram -implementation written in Kotlin (one of the -`official `__ -languages for -`Android `__) by -`@badoualy `__, currently as a beta– -yet working. - -Language-Agnostic -================= - -`Taas `__ is a service that lets you use Telegram API with any HTTP client via API. Using tdlib under the hood, Taas is commercial service, but allows free access if you use under 5000 requests per month. - -PHP -=== - -A PHP implementation is also available thanks to -`@danog `__ and his -`MadelineProto `__ project, with -a very nice `online -documentation `__ too. - -Python -====== - -A fairly new (as of the end of 2017) Telegram library written from the -ground up in Python by -`@delivrance `__ and his -`Pyrogram `__ library. -There isn't really a reason to pick it over Telethon and it'd be kinda -sad to see you go, but it would be nice to know what you miss from each -other library in either one so both can improve. - -Rust -==== - -The `grammers `__ library is made by -the `same author as Telethon's `__! If you are -looking for a Telethon alternative written in Rust, this is a valid option! - -Another older, work-in-progress implementation, on Rust is made by -`@JuanPotato `__ under the fancy -name of `Vail `__. +If you're looking for something like Telethon but in a different programming +language, head over to `Telegram API in Other Languages in the official wiki +`__ +for a (mostly) up-to-date list.
