Ask HN: A commenting system with Firebase back end?

1 pointsby backend-dev-33almost 6 years ago
For a static Github Pages website, I would like to have a commenting system. The idea is to use Firebase, because: 1. It gives social login: Google, Twitter, Github, FB 2. I want to use Firebase for some other functionality not related to comments. For a user it should be very convenient: once authenticated he&#x2F;she can comment and can use other site features (these &quot;features&quot; rely on Firebase)<p>So much theory. I started to search for Firebase commenting system and... I can find only the projects with 0 or 1 release, projects with 1 contributor, projects abandoned 5 years ago, example projects... you got the idea.<p>A commenting system should have a few features: something like an admin interface; something to fight&#x2F;prevent spam. I can not find such a thing with Firebase as a backend!<p>There are quite advanced self-hosted systems, Coralproject [1] and Commento [2] are good examples. They do not use Firebase.<p>I do not need all the features of Coralproject. But a commenting system with Firebase backend, antispam and with something like an admin interface would be great. Do you know such a thing?<p>[1] https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;coralproject&#x2F;talk [2] https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitlab.com&#x2F;commento&#x2F;commento&#x2F;

I guess Oss developers would rather invest their free development time in creating something that&#x27;s not locked in to one specific platform, and that&#x27;s why there is nothing fitting your exact requirements?
