hello

Slack is a flexible instant messaging platform for organizations. It allows you to connect with your colleagues, share documents, and organize teams. It also allows teams to collaborate with images, videos, voice messages, and huddles across teams, time zones, and physical spaces. Slack’s API has allowed it to become a highly integrated productivity tool.

In this course, you’ll become efficient at automating chats, managing channels, and making interactive messages using the API. Learn how to share and manage files on Slack using the API. At the end of the course, you’ll use Slack’s Bolt for Python framework for building a small, custom application and integrating with Slack directly.

## Overview

The Bolt framework from Slack, which allows us to focus less on the setup and more on the functionality of our application. The Bolt framework offers the following advantages: 
1. It is a built-in web server.
2. It helps manage authentication by handling #key# OAuth : Open Authorization allows external entities to share your information without revealing your password. #key#.
3. It has a clean and simple interface.
4. It offers built-in token validation and rate-limiting logic

The framework allows for a cleaner coding experience to build and maintain an application with less effort. Under the hood, the framework utilizes the same API that we've been studying so far, so all of the functionality we've looked at is implemented using the framework.
