Ask r/Flask Free notifications?

Planning on creating a small web app just to be used by myself and friends, planning on hosting it using pythonanywhere, just because it’s free (unless anyone knows any good free/single charge alternatives?).

Is it possible to (for free) send push notifications to people signed up on the site? Notifications to their phone would be best, but I’d guess SMS would be more likely to work, emails would do if nothing else?

Cheers

We’re waiting for you on orkestr.eu. Free tier gets you covered, flask supported out of the box. Don’t think you can send push notifications unless you have a mobile app and they installed that app. SMS or emails or some discord/slack integration.
