Hi,
There is no need to use wixcode for this. You can just search the web for whatsapp sharing code and add it to an html component in your web site

Even I am looking for this solution. As we are journalists. Our articles need to be shared by the reader instantly on whatsapp, linkedin . I am in need of it desperately. I dont know any coding. So what is the html code or wixcode anything please help

It’s pretty easy.
Add a styled button to the the article page.
Set the button icon to be Whatsapp icon.
And use code to add the Whatsapp Link.
For example, let’s say each artcile has it’s own URL (for example when you use a dynamic page per article). Then you can do (on page code):

import wixLocation from 'wix-location';
$w.onReady(() => {
$w('#whatsappButton').target = '_blank';//to open in a new tab
$w('#whatsappButton').link = `https://api.whatsapp.com/send?phone=&text=${wixLocation.url}`;
})
