Hello,

i'm working on a javafx application and i want to integrate facebook signup option

i have signup using facebook button and i want it to open a popup to ask the user for access and get his username and other info

sorry if my question seems broad or general but it's my first time using facebook sign up on desktop

Hi BoB,

JavaFX provides a webview, so you can simply use that to show the login dialog. Perhaps this link is useful: https://rakeshmenonp.wordpress.com/2010/05/03/javafx-facebook/

If you don't want to use the webview you may use the Device login. Your user needs to open a browser to enter the facebook credentials and let your application fetch the user access token.
