Telegram bots are powerful tools for automating tasks and interacting with users. They are also easy to build and deploy, so it looked like a good idea to build one to play around with Go. This post will guide you through building a customizable Telegram bot. If you’d like to see the final code or simply go and grab the ready-to-use script to customize and run, you can find on GitHub.

User.all
# SELECT * FROM users WHERE deleted_at IS NULL
