Coding script

What's programming language do you think it's best for creating automating script for social media like X, and telegram. I want to learn how it done

Maybe python.
Library: selenium

Python is definitely the easiest to start with, @ILikePizza is right there. But for Telegram you dont really need selenium at all... just use Telethon or Pyrogram since telegram has a really open API. For X, selenium is kinda slow and gets detected pretty fast nowadays. You are better off looking into Playwright or learning how to send raw HTTP requests with good residential proxies if you want to actually scale it without getting banned instantly.

honestly if your main goal is to learn, start with telegram first. the api is official and well documented so you actually get to focus on writing logic instead of fighting the platform. Telethon or Pyrogram like others said, both fine, pyrogram is a bit more modern feeling imo.

X is a different beast. the hard part there isnt the language, its the anti-detection cat and mouse. you can spend weeks on the automation and it works for two days then a layout change or a new bot check breaks everything. so dont measure your progress by "does it work today," measure it by how well you understand whats happening under the hood.

one thing i'd add that nobody mentioned... before you touch selenium or playwright at all, learn how to read network requests. open dev tools, watch what the site actually sends, learn httpx or requests properly. browser automation is heavy and slow, and half the time you dont even need it once you understand the underlying calls. that skill carries over to literally everything else you'll build later.

python is the right pick for learning either way. easy to read, tons of examples, and you wont get stuck on syntax while youre still figuring out the concepts.

Python is the move for learning, no argument there. But I'd push back a little on jumping straight into raw requests for X... yeah it scales better but for someone just starting out you'll hit signed headers, tokens tied to the session, all that stuff and get frustrated fast. @Ghost Merchant is right about reading network requests first though, that's the skill that actually matters.

For telegram Telethon is solid, been around forever and the docs plus stackoverflow answers are everywhere so when you get stuck you'll find help. Pyrogram is nice too, either works.

One thing nobody said... whatever you build, respect the platform limits early. People blow through rate limits day one and wonder why the account dies. Slow down your loops, add delays, don't hammer endpoints. Learning to think about that from the start saves you a lot of dead accounts later.

If you're not sure which programming language to choose, I recommend Python for writing automation scripts. I used Python myself and created Telegram Bot scripts and I really liked Python because Python has a large package ecosystem. Python is also a easier programming language to start with if you are a beginner.

What exactly do you want to do? What kind of automating scripts for social media do you want to create?
