It's fairly straight forward to add facebook functionality to a website/app, there's lots of apis floating around, or you can just talk to fb directly. Be aware their API does change over time. I'm not sure how good they are at maintaining backwards compatibility.
My experience is in external flash app development with facebook authentication and access to fb data such as friends and groups via ruby on rails. I haven't done a game on facebook itself. Be careful with the API keys, for a standard app (ie. just using facebook for authentication and access to fb data, not hosted on fb itself) the keys should only be on your server and never put inside the app - since if users pull them out they can grab personal data of every other user for your app. I've seen cases of people being a bit lax with this and it's fine if it's just your team running the app for testing, but you must not do this for a public app. On 31 May 2012 02:17, Paul Steven <paul_ste...@btinternet.com> wrote: > I am a bit of a dinosaur when it comes to facebook and have been asked to > turn a flash game into a facebook app. > > Before I make a decision on whether I can take on this job I wanted a quick > heads up on how complex a process is to do this? > > Thanks in advance. > > _______________________________________________ > Flashcoders mailing list > Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com > http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders > _______________________________________________ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
