Description

Hi,

At the time being, I needed push notification to my old AngularJs dashboard. So I developed the [node-red-contrib-ui-web-push](https://github.com/bartbutenaers/node-red-contrib-ui-web-push) node, that allowed me to ***web push*** notifications to my Android smartphone. And that still works very well. When I developed that node, Apple didn't want to support web push notifications but seems that they meanwhile have allowed it. So it has now become a technology that is supported on quite a number of platforms.

Note that I have never published that node on npm, since it is rather time consuming to troubleshoot/debug the client side code. And I don't have enough free time to do that for everybody who has problems with this node on his phone...

Before I can switch my personal dashboard to D2, I need to have an alternative. So - if I ever find time - I could migrate my ui node to D2. But I was wondering if there are perhaps already plans for web push support? I am not familiar with Vue, so I have no idea at all whether something like that is perhaps already supported by Vue out-of-the-box? Or if you can use normal (non-web) push notifications with Vue, like with all other apps? Because in that case it would be silly if I spend my precious time on migrating my old node.

Hopefully somebody can illuminate me...

P.S. This discussion is only about full integration of (web) push notifications in dashboard D2, ***not*** about external push technologies (like Telegram, ...).

Thanks!!
Bart
