This feature is only slightly relevant. The way it works is that when you are viewing an app in F-Droid, you can trigger a SEND Intent aka Share it. Then you can select an app to send it to, and it sends the URL to the f-droid.org page for that app. For example, sharing Obsqr sends this data in the SEND Intent:

https://f-droid.org/app/trikita.obsqr
