How to Create a Facebook App

So you want to know how to create a Facebook app, huh? Well it is actually easier than it looks, believe it or not. I remember that first night when I decided to jump into the Facebook application designer world, a world I was not really familiar with. I do remember how intimidating it was at first when I started searching for information on the internet how to get my first application working.

However, before we get started with the how to create a Facebook app, let us first try take on what is probably the number one question I get every time I talk about applications. It looks like a lot of people do not really know about these new developments. I can understand that especially if you are not an active member of this huge social networking website.

What is an application? It is basically a dynamic bulletin board that can be installed onto each user’s profile. The user now has access to either a service or other valuable content through your application. You can think of it as your own tv channel, that you can get people to subscribe to and then you can monetize your channel as you so wish.

So how do you build one? Well, you need is to have a Facebook account and anyone can sign up for one they are free. When you have your account, you then need to install the developer application. This will be your control center where it all runs from. All your settings and preferences will be stored here for your convenience.

It is also from here that you can go create a new application, simply click on the link at the top and submit the information requested. This is basic information such as the name, the callback website and also to check if your desired sub domain is available. Once you submit that information you will get what is called your API key and also your secret code. These two numbers are unique to each application that you will create.

This will also give you access to sample code for your application and you can use this to get you started. If you are using the various programming languages available such as PHP and javascript. You will have to upload the required libraries, otherwise your creations will not work.

You can actually create a basic app from HTML, however if you want it to do super fancy things then you shall need to know a little programming language or have access to someone who can help you with that. Applications are hosted remotely on your own server, which is where you upload all the files that are required for them to function.

Let me not forget to mention the Wiki. It is your resource center with example codes you can use as well as detailed explanations of how everything works. You can get help from other experienced developers on how to create a Facebook app in the developer’s forum.
