Poor documentation for other use cases then marketing and ads

Open uzair004 opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

Which SDK version are you using?

11.0.0

What's the issue?

Poor documentation. Facebook recommend using business-sdk for most of its api use cases, can't even find reliable or worthy documenation for using its sdk for other use cases then marketing and ads.

SDK has pages, business, marketing, conversation apis built in, But can't even barely find words regarding how to use it to manage pages.

Basic overview and getting started pages refer ads and marketing use cases only.

P.S: I am aware that it was marketing sdk before, also that pages api documentation exist but they aren't synched well with this SDK. like how to initiate sdk for pages use case.

Yes. The documentation is confusing. I can't believe that it's from facebook...

For few days I was lost in documentation, in each paragraph there are 3,4 links which leads more and more pages, and soon you'll forget why you were here LOL

Documentation should be well organized. For Business SDK more code sample and examples should be given.

Documentation seems to be not worst thing here. The library seems to be not maintained very well. The SDK depends on request library which are not maintained anymore. Now even after complete cleanup of all dependencies I still have 2 moderate issues reported due of one of request deep dependencies.
