# Web Share API

## Overview

Web Share API allows web apps to implement sharing functionality using the device's native sharing capabilities instead of having to resort to scripts from the individual sharing platforms.

## Demo

<https://nectar.website/demo/web-apis/web-share/>

## Usage

You can refer to the code present in `/partials/web-apis/web-share.html` file and use it accordingly.

If Web Share API is not supported, then you can use third-party social sharing libraries as fallback.
