| I'm not GP, but Ferret looks cool, thanks for sharing!

| Also, take a look at the "Known differences" section in

| https://ntfy.sh/ is also worth mentioning in this space.
| opensh wrote:
| Ntfy is more like a tool to aggregate notifications for

| service for notifications.

| I think https://unifiedpush.org/ is more directly related to a

|
| With the right API wrappers, existing UnifiedPush clients and
| servers can be used with Novu UnifiedPush, as UnifiedPush can
| work over all manner of transports with the right connectors in
| place.

| There are some nice bits of the software that aren't open source:
| Single Sign-On (SSO) integration, Auditing logs, etc.
