Push notifications

Related #90

• Add option on each column
• Electron (macOS, Windows, Linux)
• Web
• iOS
• Android

There are two possible ways to check for new items:

1. Run a script on app background every X minutes (has limitations on iOS: if app gets closed it will stop updating, minimum 15 minute interval to update, etc)
2. Move this responsibility to the server (probably would not scale well, imagine the server having to do thousands of github API requests per minute)

We can do option 1 for android and desktop, but for ios and web needs to be option 2.

^ I specifically care about push notifications on Android for the user dashboard view. You can claim the bounty after solving that one, the other platforms can happen later.

I'm working on it

Push Notifications is now available for Desktop! Mobile is next.
It is a paid feature and I wrote more about this here.

@brunolemos I wish you the best of luck with paid features, and hope it all turns out well!

Definitely keep us updated!

This issue sounds like you need FCM or some cloud messaging platform for best results, are you interested in heading in that direction?

@brunolemos what is the status about push notifications on mobile? currently there is NO iOS app available which is doing push notifications for Github which is unbelievable!
I really like DevHub and I would love to see this on iOS/mobile working.

Can I do something to help you with this task? Please let me know 😊

[brunolemos]

@peterus devhub is not maintained anymore

the official github app has push for github notifications

[peterus]

@brunolemos sad to hear. The push notifications are currently just working for mentions. But I want more :)
Thank you for your work!
