A new Python library simplifies Webmention implementation for websites, offering batteries-included support for the decentralized commenting protocol. The library handles incoming/outgoing mentions, storage via SQLAlchemy, automatic HTML parsing, and includes FastAPI/Flask bindings. It supports semantic HTML with Microformats2, provides customizable filtering/moderation hooks, and requires minimal setup code. The library enables peer-to-peer content interactions without third-party services, allowing websites to send and receive mentions of articles, comments, likes, and other content types across independent sites.
