A lightweight JavaScript library that provides a fast, customizable social share button for websites, replacing slow official social network widgets with a single compact button. It is explicitly unmaintained, with the last release in 2016.
Use cases
- add social share buttons to a website
- replace slow Facebook and Twitter share widgets
- customize the look of social share buttons with CSS
- share page links to multiple social networks from one button
- reduce page load time from third-party share scripts
When to choose
- you need a dependency-free, lightweight share button and accept no future updates
- you want full CSS control over share button styling
When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained library with bug fixes
- you need support for newer social networks or modern frameworks
- you require a license with clear terms (license is non-standard/unclear)
