mkg-share

Easy way to add costumizable social share buttons to website including facebook, twitter, google plus, reddit, pinterest, linkedin, whatsapp, sms and e-mail. It auto detects mobile browsers and displays sms and whatsapp share buttons.

It's easy to use and pure js. if you prefer native apis, you can use native share buttons with switching one property.

why should i use it?

1 - Social media icons based on inline svg! so you can easly change the visual style (or animate).
2 - No need extra css or other asset files. just require 'mkg-share'.
3 - Costumize share details easly from assigned element's attributes.
4 - You don't need to update for changed social media logos and colors. Just keep up to date.
5 - Used originally brand guides.
6 - Auto detect social media meta datas from page. If it doesn't exist using title and desc meta tag. (hey you can still change from attr) 7 - If you are a front-end developer you can easily build your ui through incoming social share design from your designer.
