🟦 telegramtrac

A browser interface to Telegram’s API. Provides modules for connecting, signing in and communicating via Telethon. Generates files containing messages and metadata. It also includes additional modules for data analysis. telegramtrac is a fork of the Python package Telegram Tracker.

The application is available on Streamlit Community Cloud with limited server resources.

Note

The application can be resource-intensive, and the free Streamlit Cloud Community option is not sufficient. Therefore, setting up the development environment and running locally may be more effective for Telegram channels with a lot of activity.
