otouto uses a robust plugin system, similar to that of yagop's [Telegram-Bot](http://github.com/yagop/telegram-bot). The aim of the otouto project is to contain any desirable bot feature within one universal bot framework. otouto uses a robust plugin system, similar to that of yagop's [Telegram-Bot](http://github.com/yagop/telegram-bot).

Most plugins are intended for public use, but a few are for other purposes, like those used alongside [Liberbot](#Liberbot-related_plugins), or for [use by the bot's owner](#Control_plugins). See [Development](#Development) for a breakdown of the components of a plugin, or [here](#List_of_plugins) for a list of plugins.

The administration plugin enables self-hosted, single-realm group administration, supporting both normal groups and supergroups. This works by sending TCP commands to an instance of tg running on the owner's account.

To get started, run `./tg-install.sh`. Note that this script is written for Ubuntu/Debian. If you're running Arch (the only acceptable alternative), you'll have to do it yourself. If that is the case, note that otouto uses the "test" branch of tg, and the AUR package `telegram-cli-git` will not be sufficient, as it does not have support for supergroups yet.
