Package Exports

-adisagar2003-react-share-on-social/dist/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (-adisagar2003-react-share-on-social) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

react-share-on-social

🥰😜🤑😎🥳

Native sharing if supported, beautiful fallback if not.

A ~8kb package for effortless social media sharing, originally forked from react-web-share.

Demo

_{Enhanced with ❤︎ by
Karl Sellergren, originally built by

Harsh Zalavadiya.}

Features

Uses the Web Share API for supported browsers
Copy to clipboard functionality using copy-to-clipboard
Uses React Portal to render the component outside the parent DOM hierarchy

Installation

npm install react-share-on-social

or, if you're using yarn:

yarn add react-share-on-social

Usage

Passing the linkFavicon prop drastically improves UX for devices that use the fallback. Without linkFavicon, the fallback renders a grey box instead.

Note: The Web Share API only works in secure contexts (HTTPS). Read more here.

import ShareOnSocial from "react-share-on-social";
import favicon from "../assets/favicon.png";

const Example = () => {
  return (
    <ShareOnSocial

      linkTitle="KALLE Wardorbe which chooses your clothes for you using AI - IKEA"
      linkMetaDesc="Stop going through the agony of choosing clothes that fit the weather and your mood."
