Push-Notifications
Why that plugin should be added? Most apps requires the user to be up-to-date using notifications, including notifications while the app is closed.
What features this plugin should have and how it should work? It should be able to receive notifications while the app is open and closed. To make the plugin simple, that should only support basic text notification. If possible, that should also handle custom connections/protocol.
What alternatives you've considered? None.
Is this plugin implementable on all OSes (Android, iOS, macOS, WASM, Windows...)? Unknown.
Did you known any particular limitation for specific OS? Yes. On Windows it may requires UWP app.
I'll take a look, if that works, then only iOS/Android/Windows need to be implemented. 😅
I think now that this is a good basis:

Its got a well maintainer golang backend that we can dovetail with.
They use React for GUI. i think a GIOUI gui version should be possible.
Technical notes:
URLS for playing with the React version: My testing has shown me it works well. You can do A2HS on ALL devices and it works well. Still a few rough edges but they are progressing quickly on that too.
