Push notifications #27

Open amaliaibarra opened 3 years ago

amaliaibarra commented 3 years ago

It would be nice if users could get notifications from recent posts, but it is very important that they are customizable.

For example, a user should be able to decide if they only want to receive notifications from posts announcing dogs given up for adoption in Havana City.

Can I work on this 🙏🙏

Hi @Bootspace! Yess! Thank you for choosing our project to collaborate :)

I am not a frontend Dev. I can only provide an Endpoint for the user to get all notifications and sort them however the user wants to Maybe you might consider creating an issue for a react dev to consume the Endpoint I'm working on. Hope you don't mind.

Hi @Bootspace. Sorry for the late reply.

What we need in the backend is a script that sends the notification to a specific push server. You can make some experiments with a new push server in Firebase (which was the platform we planned to use for this purpose), but feel free to propose any other service/platform

I think you had other ideas in mind so please tell us if you still want to take the issue. It is completely ok with us if it is your first time doing it!

Thanks!

I'm ready to give It a shot. Even though it will be my first time working with Push Servers
