Open up a facebook link in facebook app? Same for youtube, twitch and twitter?

I have a few buttons that lead to facebook groups, a youtube channel, a twitch channel, and a twitter.

How would go about making it open the links in there actual apps? That being for android, apple, windows phone compatible? I am not exporting the app to each platform just keeping it as the website.

Is there a simple way to do this or will it take a little more work?

How would I go about adding this to my app? Is it javascript?

Hello!

No, not JS. You would just need to use URL in necessary format. But if URL Schemes are differ for Android and iOS, you should add needed URL using JS depending on the platform (Android and iOS).
