rust

.icon("thunderbird")
.appname("thunderbird")
.hint(Hint::Category("email".to_owned()))
.hint(Hint::Resident(true)) // this is not supported by all implementations
.timeout(0) // this however is
.show()?;
Checkout toastify, it exposes most of the functionality of the lib to the commandline.
rustc >= 1.44This library shines on linux and bsd, which is its original target platform.
Lately it gained support for macOS thanks to mac-notification-sys.
However this only includes a small subset of the current functionality, since NSNotifications don't have as many features. Please refer to the You are a versed macOS UI developer with mad Objective-C skillz? PRSV.
Similar to macOS we support windows via the help of winrt-notification.
