>log in to commentHi DevHunt! I'm really excited to launch Replyke here for the first time - with v6, it is now open‑source, modern, and much more powerful than it was before. [use "OFF50PH" for 50% OFF for 3 months]. What’s new in this release: I’ve made Replyke fully open-source under Apache 2.0 - everything from core logic to client and server is now open to the community. This move makes Replyke transparent, extensible, and ready for collaboration. There's more coming and I'd like developers to see what's under the hood. I’ve added a modern, threaded comment section. The original social comment section (still available) was designed for IG/TikTok style discussions with max 2-level threading. The new threaded comment section supports much deeper discussion threads. If this is your first introduction to Replyke - here's what else you need to know: - I’ve built Replyke as a developer-friendly infrastructure layer - complete with APIs, TypeScript-first SDKs, and UI components that let you drop in features like commenting, votes (up/down), in-app notifications, content feeds, user-curated lists AND built-in moderation with a back-office with zero boilerplate. You can start shipping now! And it is non-intrusive, so you need to change nothing about your data/auth. - The React & React Native comment sections support mentions, replies, likes, highlighted comments, GIFs, reporting, moderation tools, and more - making your app's comment experience more interactive - just like users expect in 2025 - I started Replyke to solve my frustration of endlessly rebuilding comment systems (and ending with half-assed ones) - and now, as a standalone open-source framework, it solves that problem for anyone. Whether you're social app, a blog, or just want to add social features to any other product you are working on - Replyke can help you do that brings reliably and FAST. Check out the brand-new home page and docs for more info. As always - I’d love your feedback, contributions, or just a star in GitHub if you find value in it- and don’t forget your 50% discount for the first three months with the code OFF50PH - Just for DevHunters. Let's build something great together!
