You can use the URL schema whatsapp://send?text= in the attribute href of a hyperlink followed by the message that will be shared. For example:
<a href='whatsapp://send?text=StackOverflow'>compartilhar</a>If the user has the application installed, it will be initialized allowing to choose a contact next to a text field that allows to edit the message before sending.
As it is not yet possible to access Whatsapp by browser in the same way as it is done on mobile devices - no desktop this URL scheme is unknown - maybe it is interesting to hide this link and display it only on smaller screens:
/**
* Tamanho somente para ilustrar! Tenha em mente que
* a instalação do aplicativo não é restrita a smartphones.
*/
@media screen and (min-width: 860px){
.compartilhar-whatsapp {
display: none;
}
}
Some links in the application FAQ that cites the use of this custom url scheme:

@Gisele, if it is an APP, are you developed 100% in HTML? Do you use Phonegap? Which framework are you using? Put the technologies and languages (framework) you use and some codes you already have in the project and we can help better.
