Valine is a fast, simple, and lightweight client-side comment system for websites and static blogs, built on LeanCloud with no backend implementation required. It supports full Markdown syntax, emoji, email notifications, and article view counting, and integrates with static site generators like Hexo, Jekyll, Hugo, VuePress, and Gatsby.

Use cases

  • add a comment section to a static blog without running a server
  • embed comments in a Hexo or Hugo site
  • enable visitor comments on documentation sites like Docsify
  • track article page view counts
  • let users comment with Markdown and emoji support
  • add comments to a VuePress or Gatsby site via CDN

When to choose

  • you want a no-backend comment system for a static site
  • you already use or are willing to use LeanCloud for data storage
  • you need a lightweight, fast drop-in comment widget
  • you want Markdown and emoji support in comments out of the box

When to avoid

  • you need full server-side control or self-hosted comment moderation
  • you require spam filtering like Akismet
  • you don't want to depend on LeanCloud as a third-party service
  • you need actively developed software with ongoing feature work
