# Bardbook
**Bardbook** built using [Clerk](https://clerk.com/), [NextJS](https://nextjs.org/) and [Meta Graph API](https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/).
## Task
Create a NextJS application, using TypeScript. The web application should be able to signup/login via Facebook OAuth2 & publish posts on Facebook.
## Tools Used
- **Clerk**: For user authentication (Connection only through Facebook)
- **Meta Graph API**: For posts
- **Shadcn**: For minimalistic components
## Limitations
**Limitation:** To use Facebook User Login Authenticator, I had to create a Consumer App on the Meta Developer Platform. However, a Consumer App does not provide api methods to POST posts on Facebook. Meta Graph API calls can only be created via a Business App, and Business Apps takes 10 days to be approved (with proper app Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions done)
**Solution:** I created a Consumer App on Meta Developer Platform to connect the Clerk Authenticator (user will have to grant permissions on Facebook to login to Bardbook). I then created a separate Business App that is connected to a [Bardbook Facebook Page](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61554628525650) to POST posts via the Meta Graph API.
