Facebook has become a global phenomenon and overcome every other website or service on the internet. 500 Million+ users and a growth rate of as high as 40% in countries like India & China is enough to assert the fact that Facebook is going to remain the king of internet for a while!
One of the best features about Facebook is that users can create and add their own applications which other users can use and “Like”. Not only this, engineers at Facebook have even come up with their own modified scripting languages like FBML (Facebook Mark-up Language) which is like an advanced modified version of HTML. Also there is FBJS (Facebook JavaScript) which is analogous to the normal JavaScript, and then we also have the FQL (Facebook Query Language) which is analogous to SQL.
With such a large base of 500 Million plus users and such a strong platform, developers have taken to FB application development like a fish to water. But since nothing is perfect, this applies toFacebook as well. The documentation provided by Facebook is not sufficient for newbies to start creating applications. This is where Wings Corner of Facebook Development comes in.
Another issue that makes it hard to start learning Facebook development is that there are numerous ways (libraries/SDKs, languages, approaches, target platform) that developers can use for developing a FB app. And at the same time,Facebook is evolving the way how people ’should’ develop FB apps or integrating Facebook to their websites by releasing new API, data model, SDKs etc. As a result, new comers may get lost easily and need to spend some time just to get familiar with the environment, searching and reading existing documentation.
Hoping to help you learn how to develop FB apps or integrating Facebook to your website, Wing have written several sets of step-by-step tutorials and made an awesome tutorial website: http://www.takwing.idv.hk/tech/fb_dev/
