What Mark Zuckerberg and company presented on the first day f8
The opening of the Facebook Developer Conference: f8 conference took place yesterday, where Mark Zuckerberg presented with pomp major changes in the work of the social platform, as well as several new results of the company's work in various directions.

In short, everything that was shown and said yesterday from the scene of the Fort Mason Center in San Francisco.

But, first, 10 years of development of the company in one picture.
1. Chat bots in Messenger, FAQ for developers on the official site. Mark said from the stage that the company's goal is to make “communication” with companies and their products as easy as communicating with a friend.
2. VR (virtual reality, it's time to remember) a camera, 17 viewfinders for all-round viewing, 4K / 6K / 8K video quality.
3. Messenger and WhatsApp growth metrics: the first has already 900 million users, and after two applications, a total of more than 60 billion messages have been sent. Against 20 billion "global" SMS messages. Apparently, over the past year (not calendar, but between two f8).
4. Account Kit (link leads to the official announcement of the company) - a new plugin for applications that allows the user to log in using a phone number or email address, with analytics out of the box. New notifications and some "quotes" (apparently, the modification of News Feed for the "improved" display of "important" (possibly advertising) "stories" is a consequence of the release of the Account Kit.
5. Live Video API (documentation on Facebook Developer) for those who want to connect their applications and platforms to live video for social network users.
6. Bot Engine based on Wit.ai , previously purchased by Facebook (and a link to "how to cook it" ).
7. Instant Articles have successfully completed the test period and are now available for everyone.
8. Now videos recorded using other applications can be Facebook’s “profile pictures”, this is called the Facebook Profile Expression Kit .
9. Facebook money will be even more, as it was announced “Sponsored Messages”. Links will not be.
10. Rights Manager , designed to solve the problem of copying video, the rights to which belong to someone.
11. I almost forgot - Redex , bytecode optimizer for Android applications.
12. Under the last issue is not news, but what everyone focused on - Mark Zuckerberg from the stage, in a fairly open manner, opposed the company and Donald Trump himself, saying that (translated by the author): “when I travel and look around I see people and nations locking on themselves, opposing the idea of ​​a united world and a global society. I hear fear-filled voices screaming about the need to build walls and isolation from people whom someone considers "different." On prohibiting self-expression, slowing immigration, reducing trade and, in some cases, disabling access to the Internet. ”
