Publish something on my site and automatically post to facebook

2

Good afternoon, I have a question that I am pondering to understand. I saw in a system something very interesting that is when the person publishes some content on her site, there is a button that you select to also publish on facebook. It's like instagram that when you post a photo, you have the option to automatically post to facebook. How does this work in php? I have no basis.

I've been researching and all this works via API. API is a set of routines and programming standards for access to a software application or web-based platform. The acronym API refers to the English term "Application Programming Interface" which means in Portuguese translation "Programming Interface Applications "section. An API is created when a software company intends that other software developers develop products associated with its service. There are several of them that make their codes and instructions available for use on other sites in the most convenient way for their users. Google Maps is one of the great examples in the area of APIs. Through its original code, many other sites and applications use the Google Maps data to best adapt it to use this service.
