Too Long; Didn't Read

Webmentions are an open standard for a reaction to a thing on the web. It's currently in W3C recommendation status. When you link to a website, you can send a Webmention to notify that website. They can contain data, such as likes, repost, comments, or other stuff. Using webmention.io is a free service made by the amazing indieweb hero Aaron Parecki. It's a fantastic API we can leverage. We can use JavaScript to show these on our website.
