Facebook app beginners guide

Question

I'm looking to write a facebook app that can hold some state. Basically what I want is something where using this app the user can issue questions to their friends (sort of like a survey but more complex interface). I have never written a facebook app so looking for a good place to start reading. Thanks in advance :)

Answer 1

As mentioned, you will need to sign you app into the Facebook Developers website: http://developers.facebook.com. Here is a nice video I used to integrate the Facebook login into an android app. Although it is in Spanish, there is English subtitles that explain the concept. Good luck!
