What it does

Below is an example of SideComments.js in action. Each section of text can be commented on. Go ahead and give it a try! Each paragraph tag has the "commentable-section" class, making it a section which can be commented on after you've initialized a new SideComments object and pointed it at the parent element, which is "#commentable-container" for this demo. Hover over each section and you'll notice a little "comment bubble" pop up. Clicking on the markers on the right will show the SideComments. Sections without any comments only show their marker on hover. This is the default theme that comes with SideComments.js. You can easily theme SideComments to your liking by not including…from aroc.github.io
