telega is a full-featured unofficial client for Telegram platform for GNU Emacs. telega is actively developed, for this reason, some features are not implemented, or they are present just as skeletons for future implementation. However, the core parts are mature enough so that it is possible to use telega on daily basis. telega depends on the visual-fill-column and rainbow-identifiers packages. This dependency automatically installs if you install telega from MELPA or GNU Guix. Otherwise, will you need to install these packages by hand? telega is built on top of the official library provided by Telegram TDLib. Most distributions do not provide this package in their repositories, in which case you will have to install it manually by following the instructions. GNU Guix, however, does have both telega and TDLib packaged. If you use GNU Guix you can skip directly to Installing from GNU Guix.
