An embeddable web client for federated comments using the Matrix network.

There are two components to Cactus Comments:

• The embeddable web client (this repo)
• The server-side appservice (found here)

This repository is only the web client.

You can play with a live demo at cactus.chat/demo

Here is a minimal HTML page with the latest Cactus Comments release:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="https://latest.cactus.chat/style.css" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://latest.cactus.chat/cactus.js"
        data-default-homeserver-url="https://matrix.cactus.chat:8448"
        data-server-name="cactus.chat"
        data-site-name="my-blog"
        data-comment-section-id="example-page">
</script>

This is a valid configuration for the client. You also need to use an appservice. You can host your own, or use the public one at cactus.chat.
