title: Using Facebook Login in Native Desktop App
body: <p>I'm writing a VC++ app and I would like to allow users to login via Facebook. Looking through the documentation, it looks like they only support php on servers, JavaScript, and native mobile clients.</p>
  
  <p>Right now what I'm thinking of doing is to open a browser window in the app, have the user authenticate, and then grab the auth token to do native app calls.</p>
  
  <p>The other thing I was thinking of is having the user enter the Facebook username and password into my app and then using that directly, but I'm not sure if that's allowed.</p>
  
  <p>How do I authenticate a desktop app with Facebook?</p>
