Project description
We run a content blog and want to add a reactions widget under every article — either a simple like/dislike pair or a small set of emoji-style reactions readers can pick from. The main requirement is a reliable counter that recognizes a visitor who already voted, whether through a cookie, local storage, or an account link, and blocks a second vote from the same person without blocking new visitors or breaking after a browser cache clear.
On top of the front-end widget we need a small statistics panel for the editorial team: which articles get the most positive reactions, which get more negative than positive, and how the numbers change over time so we can spot which topics resonate and which fall flat. Ideally the data can be filtered by a date range and reviewed as a sorted table inside the admin area.
We are open to discussing the exact approach — plain JavaScript with a lightweight backend endpoint, or integration into an existing content system. Please share examples of similar widgets or engagement dashboards you have built, and how you would guard the counter against bot abuse.
What we need in short:
— like/dislike or a set of four to six emotion icons
— protection against duplicate and bot voting
— per-article statistics for editors
— instant counter update with no page reload
