External Links Opening in the Same Tab Instead of a New Tab #200

Description:

The website currently has icons for GitHub, GitLab, Discord, and X that link to their respective pages. However, when these icons are clicked, the links open in the same browser tab instead of opening in a new tab. This behaviour can disrupt the user experience as it navigates away from the website.

Expected Behaviour:

Each external link (GitHub, GitLab, Discord, and X) should open in a new browser tab to ensure that users can easily return to the website after visiting the external sites.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Visit the website.
  2. Click on the GitHub, GitLab, Discord, or X icon.
  3. Observe that the link opens in the same tab.

Proposed Solution:
Update the HTML anchor tags for these icons to include the target="_blank" attribute, which will open the links in a new tab.

Additional Notes:
I would like to work on this issue and implement the necessary changes to ensure that the external links open in new tabs.
