# utterances

Marketing · [Official website](https://utteranc.es/)

utterances is an open source comments widget that stores each discussion as an issue in a GitHub repository. Site owners embed a script that loads the comment thread in an iframe from utteranc.es, and readers sign in with GitHub to post. Because it loads content from utteranc.es and GitHub, it sends visitor data to these third parties.
