<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/shareon@1/dist/shareon.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

or install it via NPM use it in a JS file that you will bundle:

Usage

Create a container with class shareon and populate it with elements, whose classes match the names of social networks:

<div class="shareon">
    <a class="facebook"></a>
    <a class="messenger"></a>
    <a class="pinterest"></a>
    <a class="telegram"></a>
    <a class="twitter"></a>
    <a class="whatsapp"></a>
</div>

By default the URL and the title of the page will be used in sharing dialogs. To change this, you can use the data-url and data-title attributes. Use them on the whole container or on the specific links:

<div class="shareon" data-url="https://example.com">
    <a class="facebook" data-title="Custom Facebook title"></a>
    <a class="twitter" data-title="Custom Twitter title"></a>
</div>

Apart from the URL and title, some networks support extra parameters:

• add data-via to a Twitter button to mention a user
• add data-text to a WhatsApp or Telegram button to add custom message text
• add data-media to a Pinterest button to customize the pinned picture

Here are all the custom parameters in their glory:

<div class="shareon" data-url="https://example.com/custom-url">
    <a class="facebook" data-title="Custom Facebook title"></a>
    <a class="messenger" data-url="https://my-cool-website.com"></a>
    <a class="pinterest" data-media="https://picsum.photos/500">Pin</a>
    <a class="telegram" data-text="Check this out!"></a>
    <a class="twitter" data-via="MyNickname"></a>
    <a class="whatsapp">Send</a>
</div>
