    //For VK.com (Only if you really need it)
    'vk.count' => 100, //Maximum count of posts per feed

Some implicit reasons (FAQ)

Q: How to get vk.com token?

A: Read all info here: https://vk.com/dev/auth_sites, you need following scopes: video,offline

Q: How to get facebook.com token?

A: Create app (for websites) and get it token (App token) here: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/accesstoken/

Q: Why no API libraries were used?

A: Because API library contains a lot of unnecessary (for this project) things (eg: Managing users and groups in VK, but really needed only read access to groups) and (owing to first part of answer) a lot of unnecessary dependencies.
