It’s a tiny and opinionated tool for sending push notifications. No sign up. No message history. No dashboard.
I like it. Would you?

@simonbs Coming soon (Maybe)

@simonbs Love the name, and the icon is clearly a stroke of genius.

@simonbs I would try it out! I don't know what practical use I would have for it, but I'd like to be able to find that out

@simonbs there used to be an amazing push notification service on Android way back in the day. Been waiting for something like it on iOS!!

@simonbs I’d use it! I would later like a dashboard, but I’ve been wanting push notifications just in real time to see people signup for my app
️Cause it’s a small number right now and I need that dopamine

@simonbs What are you using for the back end of this?

@hoagie I’ve tried to answer that here: https://brrr.now/learn-more/
Happy to elaborate but I’m curious if that page answer your question, because if not, then I’d like to update it. I want to be as transparent as possible with this.

@simonbs Basically where's the web hook receiving? Are you hosting a server? Firebase? Etc?

@hoagie Oh, I can add that. It’s a Cloudflare Worker which in turn talks with a Vercel app. I’d like to get rid of the latter, but Cloudflare doesn’t seem to really support HTTP/2, which is required for APNS.

@simonbs It looks so nice and simple. I hope you release it

@simonbs Like the idea of being able to send notifications using only a webhook, and not having to give a specific app truckloads of permissions.
The level of customisation of the notification will be key for some; i.e. how detailed can I get? Can I send a critical message?
Also, how costly is such a service to run? What might a subscription model look like if needed in the future? Does this do anything that isn't already in the market?
Vaguely remember an iOS app and website, can't find it.

@simonbs seems like an easy win to have an encryption key so the push data is encrypted and do a push service to decrypt on device?

@axxl Yes, that's also something I've been thinking to do!

@simonbs I definitely would! All the alternatives look old and complicated - have thought about building my own version of this before as well

@simonbs I can already think of at least two things I can use this for the moment it’s available
