## What it is
A collection of archived Facebook Platform SDKs (PHP, JavaScript, Swift, React Native) for integrating Facebook login and Graph API calls into apps. These legacy SDKs are deprecated and superseded by newer official Facebook SDK releases.

## Use cases
- add facebook login to a php app
- call the facebook graph api from my server
- integrate facebook sharing in a react native app
- implement social login with facebook
- post to a user's facebook feed via api
- maintain a legacy app using old facebook sdk v3

## When to choose
- you must maintain a legacy codebase already built on Facebook SDK v3 or the archived connect-js/react-native-fbsdk
- you need reference source for how the old Facebook SDKs worked

## When to avoid
- starting any new project - use the current official Facebook SDKs instead
- you need up-to-date Graph API features or security fixes
- you need maintained code with an active community

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: sdk, auth, http-client
- domain: apis, web-development, social-media
- platform: php
- tags: facebook-graph-api, deprecated, social-login, oauth, legacy-sdk, javascript, swift, ios, android, react-native
