Roll your own like me so far, or do you use 3rd-party notification tools like Courier or Knock? Source: over 1 year ago
Courier is ideal for this kind of application since it makes it simple to integrate notification systems. We will be using the Courier API to send email notifications for now, but it is quite easy to extend it to use SMS or other communication channels. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
