It can be In-App (the bell icon like you have in Facebook - Websockets), Emails, SMSs and so on. I would be super happy if you could give us a star!

  • Socket.io

    Realtime application framework (Node.JS server)

    Socket.io is a popular JavaScript library that allows us to create real-time, bi-directional communication between web browsers and a Node.js server. It is a highly performant and reliable library optimized to process a large volume of data with minimal delay. It follows the WebSocket protocol and provides better functionalities, such as fallback to HTTP long-polling or automatic reconnection, which enables us to build efficient chat and real-time applications.

  • Express

    Express.js is a fast, minimalist framework that provides several features for building web applications in Node.js. CORS is a Node.js package that allows communication between different domains.
