Lynx is a a simple Telegram bot made in Node.js.
## Requirements
- A Telegram bot (create one at [@BotFather](https://t.me/botfather))
- Node.js 20 LTS (or above)
- node-telegram-bot-api (install with ``npm install node-telegram-bot-api``)
## Notes
- The source code itself of the bot is at ``src/main.js``, and the commands are in ``src/commands``.
- You can rename this file and change the ``package.json`` file as your needs.
- The name of the command file will always be the command itself.
- Example: ``whois.js`` will always be ``/whois`` on Telegram.
