How it works

The code uses the telegram.ext ConversationHandler to create a guided and flawless conversation flow. Moreover it uses different other telegram.ext classes to "ask & get" the responses information from the user. Furthermore all of the data is being stored in reminder.json to create the data flow between the different states of the ConversationHandler and have the opportunity to access the reminder later on (e.g. for the /list command). To provide this bot for people from different timezones, you have the opportunity to set your local timezone using the /time command to receive the reminders for your local time instead of the bot's / server's local time. Disclaimer: This is my first bot for telegram, so there might be things that could have been implemented and routed easier than I did.
