# Introduction

FBCE is a *lightweight*, simple and fast Facebook comment scraper that doesn't require official Facebook API. The built-in desktop tool allows you to export retrieved Facebook comments as JSON or even Excel file.

### FBCE .NET Library

FBCE can be used as .NET library. The project is targeting .NET Standard 2.0 with very easy to use API. You might want to [reuse the library](/fbce/sample-api-usage.md) on your own project!

### FBCE Desktop App

This product also comes with a very simple Graphical User Interface that works across multiple platforms like Windows, macOS, and Linux. With the use of [FBCE.Desktop](/fbce/using-desktop-app.md), you can easily scrape and export retrieved comments into structured data like Excel or JSON file with just a few clicks!
