Issue Type

UI Change

Issue Description

Currently, the profile share sidebar supports sharing via LinkedIn and Twitter.

For a developer-focused product, this limits discoverability within technical communities.
We should expand the sharing functionality to include additional technical platforms where developers actively share projects and profiles.

This issue proposes extending the existing share system to support more platforms in a scalable and reusable way.

Expected Outcome

The current sharing options are too generic and not optimized for developer ecosystems.

Missing platforms:

  • Dev-focused communities
  • Messaging tools used by engineers
  • Technical discussion platforms

The share sidebar should allow users to distribute their GitHub profile more effectively within technical networks.

Additional Details (for Other / Bug / Backend)

Suggested Platforms:-

  • WhatsApp
  • Telegram
  • Reddit
  • Dev.to
  • Hacker News
  • Email (mailto link)
    Implementation Notes :-
    -share-config map instead of hardcoded buttons
  • Maintain current open/close state behavior
  • Ensure accessibility labels for all share actions
  • Icons should follow the existing lucide-react style
