Is it possible to create a chat for a website using the Telegram API?

Question

PHP

I am faced with the task of developing a multi-user general chat (naturally with ajax) on the site.
I don’t want to reinvent the wheel, although there are a decent number of examples on the net: both good and not so good. Therefore, I decided to make a chat based on a ready-made solution. Then I remembered that Telegram is 100% open, but I just found api. There are no discussions or ready-made solutions anywhere :(
Therefore, the question arose: is it possible to create a multi-user chat based on the Telegram API.
Or can you suggest other solutions to the problem?
Thank you.

Answer 1

Telegram is not 100% open, it's a marketing myth.
The source code of the server is closed, only the protocol specifications and the source code of the clients are open.

PS Since the server part is closed - all talk about mega-security is nothing more than cheap populism . Absolutely no one bothers the server owners to read all the correspondence of their users.

Answer 2

You can tie a Telegram conversation to the site.
If there is already a conversation, add the @chatbro bot, log in via Telegram to chatbro.com , your chat will appear in the 'My Conversations' section. Now it can be embedded on any site.

Answer 5

It is quite possible to write such a chat using the telegram API. And if you don’t want to write your own client, then you can generally use tg-cli as a backend for your chat on the site.
