Note The app uses Only vanilla JS/CSS/HTML to behave the way it does. Thus, reducing unecessary library bulk for styling and scripting the various features.
- The app uses a WeakMap to hold mappings to comments on the main thread
- These comments which will have replies in a thread, are essentially the head of a linked list in JS.
- Each new comment creates a new thread
- Each thread offers add / search / delete features
- The app seperates its logical concerns and has the model ( linked lists) driven from the UI via controller functions
- The model is object oriented whereas the controllers are all modular / functional
