Build a minimal one in php. Basic JavaScript and php form validation before the php sends an email to a comments@domain account. The email spam filter takes care of the spam. Your moderation tool becomes the email client.
Have a script that runs locally to read the email and automatically insert it into the appropriate page. In my case I insert it into a Jekyll page yaml before recompiling and publishing the comment.

- decasteve 8y agoAny mention of WordPress and I automatically think php. It’s pervasive and simple enough to setup. To validate a form and send an email you can use whatever is there — whatever is quickest and easiest for you.
