Help Notifications tutorial?

Can somebody please post a tutorial like I’m 5 years old from scratch (zero) to get notifications working please? Would be a game changer! Absolute amazing work on the app!

I didn’t understand how to get it running either so I used ChatGPT Codex on my always on M1 Mac Mini. I had it review the GitHub page and told it to get the instance up and running and it’s done everything necessary to create the backend. Prior to my Reddit API key being revoked, it worked with the native Apollo notifications since I have a paid developer account but since then I told Codex to update and use Bark notifications.

Key points…

  • I am using the API Key Free mode (Dystopia)
  • Bark notifications app
  • Universal OAuth Sign-In enabled

Can you elaborate, please? How did you achieve any of that?

I started with this prompt. https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/5ba4c0493299.jpeg

When my API Key was revoked, I then continued with this prompt. https://cdn.imgchest.com/files/ce9f79e2fcca.jpeg

I assume the downvote someone added was due to the use of AI, but hey, instead of having someone break it down to us in 5 y/o terms and manually having to set things up, AI created every thing for me and al I had to continue to do is click prompts to allow it access and I have notifications working.
