How to display messages from the vk + fb group on the site?

Question

Facebook

Good day, gentlemen, there is practically no developer from me, therefore, the questions will most likely be quite lamer. So, we have a certain site (I know a little about php and python), on the page of which we need to display a message written in the contact / facebook group (if it is possible to pick up other social networks, it’s also good, but aim at it ..) in the description of the contact api it is indicated that the answer comes as json - how to prepare it? that is, it turns out that a parser should work on the site, which will take new data, write it to the database, and the front will draw it. Am I understanding how it works correctly?

Answer 1

parsing is the one who rudely "breaks" into the site, takes the entire code of the page. cuts off the excess - leaves only what is needed. Api VK is functional. What returns the pre-thought out information allowed for viewing. Roughly speaking, they give a functional that performs certain functions - outputting a response in json format.
- Well, those are different things. decide what you need
