## What it is
The official Apache Cordova/PhoneGap plugin for Facebook integration, providing a JavaScript API for login, logout, and status checks in hybrid mobile apps. It uses the native Facebook app for Single Sign On on Android and iOS, with dialog-based fallback authentication.

## Use cases
- add facebook login to a cordova app
- single sign on with facebook in phonegap
- share to facebook from a hybrid mobile app
- get facebook access token in javascript
- check facebook login status in cordova

## When to choose
- maintaining a legacy Cordova/PhoneGap app already using this plugin
- you need Facebook SSO in a hybrid app targeting old Facebook SDK 3.x

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - the plugin is unmaintained and targets an obsolete Facebook SDK
- you need current Facebook Graph API features
- your app is native rather than Cordova-based

- function: auth, sdk, mobile-framework
