Notifications when Engine is about to play #57

Open JoAnnP38 opened 1 year ago

JoAnnP38 commented 1 year ago

Provide a means for the engine developer to be notified (maybe email or text) when their engine is about to play or is starting to play.

What about a native browser notification?

JoAnnP38 commented 1 year ago

I'm not sure how a browser notification would work, but here is the use case. Consider I am doing household chores or working in the yard, but I have my phone with me or near-by. I would like to be notified audibly when my engine is about to play. That could be my iPhone's audible alert when I receive a text or an email or something else. I'm not sure what would be available. If a native browser notification could be used for that purpose, then sure.

I'm not sure about text messages, but I can probably look into AWS SES for email notifications.
