NOW LET US Article – Show HN: TownSquare, a tiny presence layer for websites

TownSquare is a lightweight, zero-dependency script that adds a real-time presence layer to websites, allowing visitors to interact, move around, and chat without accounts or algorithms.

The web is full of content but empty of people. TownSquare brings a little presence back. Visitors can see each other, say a few words, and share the same space. No accounts. No algorithms. Just the present.

Click, tap, or use â â to move · Press T or tap your name to say something · Press J to jump and H to high-five with someone

Drop a single <script> tag before </body>. No build step, no dependencies.

Visitors can see each other the moment they arrive.

Move around, interact with the environment, say hello, and share the moment.

Connect your site and become part of a growing network of inhabited corners of the web.

Free to add, takes about a minute. No accounts to create.
