Description: Solved issue #200
This pull request addresses an issue where the external links (GitHub, GitLab, Discord, and X) on the website were opening in the same tab, causing users to navigate away from the site.
Changes Made:
Updated the HTML for external link icons to include target="_blank" attributes.
Added rel="noopener noreferrer" to improve security and performance when opening links in new tabs.
Files Modified:
Updated the link component in the following files (list specific files if needed):
components/ExternalLinks.js
pages/index.js
public/assets/icons.js
Reason for Changes:
Ensuring external links open in a new tab provides a better user experience by allowing users to easily return to the site after visiting external pages.
Additional Notes:
No functional changes to the existing content; only modifications to link behaviour.
Verified changes in various browsers to ensure consistent behaviour.
Please review the changes and let me know if further adjustments are needed.
