New Feature / Enhancement Checklist

Current Limitation

ParseFacebookUtils and ParseTwitterUtils:

  • Require frequent maintenance and updates even though they are convenience methods that save the developer just a few lines of code, in contrast to the amounts of code this requires in the SDK.
  • They probably used to be the most popular 3rd party auth providers back in the days, but today that may not be true anymore. The focus on these 2 services seems increasingly arbitrary and lacks justification.
  • Bundles the Facebook SDK with the Parse SDK which creates conflicts if developers use different FB SDK versions in their project.

Feature / Enhancement Description

Remove both utils. There seems to be community support as well, see #1774 (comment).
