# Commentify Pro

> Self-hosted comments for Laravel — JSON API, React and Vue SDKs, spam pipeline, Filament moderation, and the same Livewire UI.

- [Commentify Pro](https://docs.commentify.pro/index.md): Self-hosted comments for Laravel: Livewire, React, and Vue on one JSON API, plus a spam pipeline and Filament moderation.
- [Install Commentify Pro](https://docs.commentify.pro/quickstart.md): Add the private Composer repository, require the package, and run the interactive commentify-pro:install command.
- [Licensing](https://docs.commentify.pro/licensing.md): Personal, Business, and Forever licenses. Composer auth at install, no runtime DRM.
- [Upgrade to Commentify Pro](https://docs.commentify.pro/upgrading.md): Move from the MIT Commentify package to Pro without changing your comments table or Livewire component.
- [Commentify Pro](https://docs.commentify.pro/readme.md): Self-hosted comments for Laravel with a native Filament admin. Install, both plugins, spam pipeline, and the JSON API in one page.
- [Make a model commentable](https://docs.commentify.pro/usage.md): Add the Commentable trait, drop the Livewire thread, and map aliases for the Pro API.
- [Configuration](https://docs.commentify.pro/configuration.md): The single published file config/commentify-pro.php: core overlay, commentables, API, spam, media, and more.
- [Authentication](https://docs.commentify.pro/authentication.md): Pair the API guard with the middleware group. Session cookies, Sanctum SPAs, and bearer tokens.

- [Livewire](https://docs.commentify.pro/livewire.md): Drop the core comments component on any commentable model. Pro hooks apply automatically.
- [How the JavaScript ships](https://docs.commentify.pro/javascript.md): React and Vue SDKs live inside the Composer package. Publish to resources/js/vendor/commentify and link them as file: dependencies.

- [Vue](https://docs.commentify.pro/vue.md): Mount @commentify/vue in Blade or Inertia. Same UI contract as Livewire and React.
- [Hook reference](https://docs.commentify.pro/hooks.md): useCommentThread is the same store in React and Vue. Optimistic writes, pending comments, and ApiError codes.
- [Bring your own markup](https://docs.commentify.pro/headless.md): Headless Commentify: CommentifyProvider, useCommentThread, and CommentifyClient with none of the bundled UI.
- [JSON API](https://docs.commentify.pro/api.md): Versioned commentify/api/v1: list, create, edit, like, report, pin, media, markdown preview, and UI config.
- [Spam pipeline](https://docs.commentify.pro/spam.md): Heuristic, Akismet, and custom checkers run on every Livewire and API save. Deny aborts; review holds for Filament.
