Guides¶

These pages answer the questions that come up once you've got a bot running but aren't sure which tool to reach for.

They sit between the tutorials (step-by-step walkthroughs) and the reference sections (method lists and variable docs). Read them when you're planning a feature, not when you're looking up a single method name.

What's here¶

More guides will land here over time — things like structuring multi-step flows, handling errors without scaring users, and when webhooks beat normal commands.

Bot vs Api lives in the sidebar right after the Bot and Api sections on purpose: read those overviews first, then use the comparison guide when both objects start to blur together.

Where to go next¶

If you haven't built a bot yet, start with Getting Started and Your First Bot.

For context in every command, see Global Variables. For instance reference, see Bot and Api, then Bot vs Api.
