Node.js Push notifications
Introduction
So if you wanna make web app notification I suggest you to use Push.js or SoneSignal framework for Web/mobile app.
Push is the fastest way to get up and running with Javascript notifications. A fairly new addition to the official specification, the Notification API allows modern browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and IE 9+ to push notifications to a user’s desktop.
You will have to use Socket.io and some backend framework, I will user Express for this example.
