At the time of launch, Laravel Comments' main features include:

• A beautiful Livewire component to display comments
• markdown submission is supported, we'll render it as html
• code snippets that appear in comments will automatically be highlighted
• users can react to comments (👍, ❤️, or any emoji you want)
• optionally, you enable a comment approval flow
• sane API for creating your own commenting UI
• Livewire components out of the box

At the core of this package is the HasComments trait you'll add to models:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;
use Spatie\Comments\Models\Concerns\HasComments;
 
class Post extends Model
{
    use HasComments;
}

Which then enables you to manage comments and reactions on a model:

$post->comment("I've got a feeling");
 
$comment->react('😍');

While the above is a barebones example, the package also comes with a fully baked Laravel Livewire component, which also supports one level of nested comments:

Note that you must pay for a premium license to use this package. To get started, check out the Laravel Comments documentation.
