This wiki page is meant to be a place where everyone can find and contribute examples on how to use Telethon.
|
||||
Welcome to the wiki! This place hosts all the information you need in order to work with this library. **Telethon** is a Telegram client implementation in **Python** which uses the latest available API of Telegram. Check the links on the sidebar for more!
|
||||
|
||||
Before opening an issue about how to use the library, **please** make sure you've investigated and read the wiki enough! Issues lacking of any sense at all end on the [Wall of Shame](https://github.com/LonamiWebs/Telethon/wiki/Wall-of-Shame).

|

## Why Telethon?
|
||||
|
||||
> Why should I bother with Telethon? There are more mature projects already, such as [`telegram-cli`](https://github.com/vysheng/tg) with even (limited) Python support. And we have the [official](https://github.com/telegramdesktop/tdesktop>) [clients](https://github.com/DrKLO/Telegram>)!
|

|
||||
With Telethon you don't really need to know anything before using it. Create a client with your settings.
|
||||
Connect. You're ready to go.
|
||||
|
||||
Being written **entirely** on Python, Telethon can run as a script under any environment you wish, (yes,
|
||||
[Android too](https://f-droid.org/repository/browse/?fdfilter=termux&fdid=com.termux>)). You can schedule it,
|
||||
or use it in any other script you have. Want to send a message to someone when you're available? Write a script.
|
||||
Do you want check for new messages at a given time and find relevant ones? Write a script.
|
||||
|
||||
**It is very important** that your system time is [on sync](https://time.is/)! Telegram won't send a reply back *at all* if your system time is too ahead of the current time, or too behind. This will most likely be the cause for the following errors:
