I&rsquo;ve been working with it for years, and since I use Telegram daily, I figured: why not write a bot in C? I know there&rsquo;s already <a href="https://github.com/smartnode/telebot">telebot</a>, but I wanted to learn something new.</p> <p>In this post, we&rsquo;re going to build a simple echo bot, it replies with whatever you send it. We&rsquo;ll use <code>libcurl</code> for HTTP and <code>yyjson</code> for parsing the responses.</p>
