SideComments.js is a front-end UI component that adds Medium.com-style inline commenting to sections of web content. It handles only the display layer; comment storage and retrieval are left to the developer.
Use cases
- add medium-style inline comments to articles
- let users comment on specific paragraphs of a page
- section-level commenting ui for a blog
- replace bottom-of-page comment streams with inline annotations
When to choose
- you want Medium-style per-section commenting and are on a legacy jQuery stack
When to avoid
- you need a maintained library or modern framework support
- you need backend comment storage or moderation features
- your project does not use jQuery
