Gems we use for BetaList commenting system
Raw
gems.md

We recently implemented a commenting system on BetaList. It's still under heavy development, but here's an overview of the gems we're using so far:

  • acts_as_commentable_with_threading provides most of functionality you need
  • acts_as_votable makes the comments votable (so the best ones can rise to the top)
  • mention_system handles @mentions. this is a very young gem, but seems to work fine
  • mailboxer is a very robust notification system (we notify the startup when there's a comment, when someone replies to your comment, and when you are @mentioned)
