Add Comments to Your React App

The Main Widget Component

The FastCommentsCommentWidget component contains the live FastComments comment widget.

Replace "demo" below with your "tenantId" - available here in the FastComments admin area.

The widget supports a lot of options - see FastCommentsCommentWidgetConfig in src/index.tsx.

import React, { Component } from 'react'

import {FastCommentsCommentWidget} from 'fastcomments-react'

class Example extends Component {
  render() {
    return <FastCommentsCommentWidget tenantId="demo" />
  }
}

Updating The Current Page (For SPAs)

To update the page/article the comment thread is tied to you must update the configuration parameters "urlId" and "url". See the example and explanation here.

Account Region (ATTENTION: EU Customers)

If you're in the EU, you'll want to tell the client widgets what region you are in. See examples/example-eu; Otherwise, you do not have to define region.

The Comment Count Widget

The FastCommentsCommentCountWidget component contains the live FastComments comment count widget.

Replace "demo" below with your "tenantId" - available here in the FastComments admin area.

See FastCommentsCommentCountConfig in src/index.tsx for the supported configuration options.

import React, { Component } from 'react'

import {FastCommentsCommentCountWidget} from 'fastcomments-react'

class Example extends Component {
  render() {
    return <FastCommentsCommentCountWidget tenantId="demo" urlId="https://example.com/some-page-or-id" />
