Add other platforms

[Lyzod]

Hi Nico, I very much appreciate your work here, it's exactly what I want for putting my contact info out there.

I am missing a few though:

• ResearchGate
• Academia.edu
• Mastodon
• Telegram (you can make brand ones there to protect your phone number), maybe also WhatsApp and Signal and/or just "phone"
• Peertube
• Matrix
• (random Symbol for Email)
• (if you support it) Mendeley
• Zotero (yes, you can share your work there)
• DocCheck
• Quora
• Google Scholar
• Medium
• Semantic scholar

I would love to see more Fediverse services like Pixelfed, friendica and Hubzilla, but I understand that with so small user numbers those networks are essentially irrelevant.

If there is a way to comfortably declare your own symbols and add the short function call for it.

Thanks for the work again

Hello,
I'm open to pull requests that add other platforms but these platforms should be widely known and used (not just by individuals).
I like the idea of a convenient way to declare your own symbols. This should be fairly easy by adapting icon-link-generator() a bit. I'll see what I can do. 😄

Hi,

thanks for considering it. There are always niche platforms, so it's impossible to do all. ResearchGate, Mastodon, Google Scholar, Academia.edu are massive though in - well - academia. It's definitely bigger than Facebook for that groups xD. All of those have ten thousands active users and millions in total. Personally, in my bubble it's like a standard to have those and I would definitely make

And when you wanna upload a video save from corporate interests, Peertube would be your friend.

Looking forward for what you will be cooking

I believe it should be pretty simple now:

1. Import the icon function from iconic-salmon-svg-icons.typ
2. Create your own logo with #let mylogo-icon(file: "my/path/to/localsvg/websitelogo.svg", height: 1.1em) = icon(file, height)
3. Import icon-link-generator from iconic-salmon-svg.typ
4. Create link to platform with icon-link-generator("my name", "https://coolwebsite.com/profile/my-name/", mylogo-icon) (notice that you need to give full URL)
