Facebook Groups

A Facebook Group is an online community on Facebook where people with shared interests can connect, discuss, and share content. Groups can be public or private and are used for networking, support, discussions, and collaboration.

Integrating your application with Facebook enhances social media engagement, offering features like posting updates, managing groups, and accessing user data for personalized experiences.
