Introduction to Bolt

Overview

The Bolt framework from Slack 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 has a built-in web server.
2. It helps manage authorization by handling OAuthOpen Authorization allows external entities to share your information without revealing your password..
3. It has a clean and straightforward interface.
4. It offers built-in token validation and rate-limiting logic.

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