Website Feedback Widget

BugDrop is a website feedback widget for teams that want actionable reports without asking users to leave the page. Visitors click the widget, describe what they saw, attach or annotate a screenshot, and BugDrop sends the report to GitHub Issues with the page URL and browser context.

What Makes a Feedback Widget Useful?

A feedback widget should reduce friction for the reporter and reduce ambiguity for the developer. Text-only reports often miss the page state, viewport, browser, and reproduction context. BugDrop captures those details at submit time so the issue starts with enough information to triage.

Best-Fit Workflows

• Marketing pages where layout or copy issues affect conversion
• Documentation sites where examples, tabs, and navigation need quick feedback
• SaaS apps where users can report broken UI states from inside the product
• Internal tools where teammates need a low-friction way to report bugs
• Client review sites where non-technical stakeholders should not need GitHub accounts

Why Send Feedback to GitHub Issues?

Most development teams already use GitHub for triage, assignment, labels, discussion, and release tracking. A separate feedback inbox creates another place to check. BugDrop keeps website feedback in the same workflow as engineering work.

Each report can include a description, screenshot, annotations, feedback type, page URL, browser, operating system, viewport size, and labels. That makes the GitHub Issue useful immediately.

Add It to a Site

Install the GitHub App, add the script tag from the installation guide, and configure the widget with configuration options. For sensitive pages, review security and screenshot masking before launch.
