## What it is
fbgraph is a Node.js library providing simple access to the Facebook Graph API. It wraps API calls to return consistent JSON, handles OAuth authorization and access token management, and supports securing calls with appsecret_proof.

## Use cases
- access the facebook graph api from node
- publish posts to a user's facebook feed
- authenticate users with facebook oauth in an express app
- extend the expiration of short-lived facebook access tokens
- fetch facebook user profile data as
- secure facebook api calls with appsecret_proof

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight, minimal wrapper around the Facebook Graph API in Node.js
- you want consistent JSON responses from Facebook endpoints
- you need simple OAuth authorization and token handling for Facebook

## When to avoid
- you need a fully featured or actively maintained Facebook SDK with support for the latest Graph API versions
- you require guaranteed long-term maintenance or formal license assurance
- you are not working in Node.js
