Simple HTTP-based pub-sub notification service

Console.dev
2022-11-24Source
What engineers like:
Install the app (Android or iOS) and POST to the API to send yourself a notification. Can be a very simple message or include custom titles, priority (Android only), scheduled delivery, action buttons, attachments, icons. Also supports email and a CLI for notifications. Free hosted by the author, or open source so you can run your own private server.
Trade-offs & limitations:
Topics are open with read/write access by anyone - access control is supported and you can run your own server to protect it further.
Best suited for:
Developers needing a simple notification system

# Design Brief: Minimal Monochrome

Monochrome palette with a single accent color, hairline dividers, and generous whitespace.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #fafafa;
  --surface: #ffffff;
  --foreground: #111111;
  --muted-foreground: #6b7280;
  --accent: #1f8a70;
  --radius: 9999px;
  --font-heading: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Inter", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #FAFAFA (~58%) · Surface #FFFFFF (~16%) · Text #111111 (~10%) · Muted Text #6B7280 (~6%) · Accent #1F8A70 (~10%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Split Copy & Visual
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Light · Airy
- Border radius & elevation: Pill; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: Product UI Screenshot / Component
- Conversion CTA: Download App / Install Extension · Trust bar uses User Count, Rating, or Key Metrics
- Headline hook: Pain Relief & Replacement
- Hero components: Large Hero Product Shot, Metrics Strip
- Spatial layout notes: Split Copy & Visual hero structure paired with download app / install extension CTA and user count, rating, or key metrics.
- Visual summary: Minimal Monochrome (Light canvas, airy density) featuring split copy & visual layout and product ui screenshot / component visuals.

## Avoid

- Multi-stop neon gradients
- Heavy drop shadows
- More than one competing accent color

Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
