This is a giscus instance used as a service for @recaptime-dev and friends, maintained under @ajhalili2006's Vercel account and powered by GitHub Discussions.

You can monitor deployments at https://github.com/ajhalili2006/tools-commentsapi and we'll try our best to keep in sync with upstream (other than minimal changes, like this README).

When giscus loads, the GitHub Discussions search API is used to find the Discussion associated with the page based on a chosen mapping (URL, pathname, <title>, etc.). If a matching discussion cannot be found, the giscus bot will automatically create a discussion the first time someone leaves a comment or reaction.

To comment, visitors must authorize the giscus app to post on their behalf using the GitHub OAuth flow. Alternatively, visitors can comment on the GitHub Discussion directly. You can moderate the comments on GitHub.

If you're using giscus, consider starring 🌟 the upstream repo on GitHub and adding the giscus topic to your repository! 🎉

You can add additional configurations (e.g. allowing specific origins) by following the advanced usage guide.

To use giscus with React, Vue, or Svelte, check out the giscus component library.

If you've previously used other systems that utilize GitHub Issues (e.g. utterances, gitalk), you can convert the existing issues into discussions. After the conversion, just make sure that the mapping between the discussion titles and the pages are correct, then giscus will automatically use the discussions.
