The 2nd workshop is Intro to Python with Telegram Bots. Python is a general purpose programming language with wide applications such as game development, data processing and machine learning. It is easy to pick up, and many of its concepts are transferable to other programming languages as well. No experience is required for this workshop. Participants will learn the basics of programming in Python, followed by a hands-on development of their own Telegram bot.
