Gotify

Gotify provides a self‑hosted notification server that allows messages to be sent through a REST API and received in real time via WebSocket connections. The server includes a web‑based user interface for managing users, clients, and applications, and it can be extended with plugins. An Android application subscribes to the server’s message stream and generates push notifications for new messages, while a command‑line client enables sending messages from terminals without requiring the mobile app.

The system is aimed at developers and teams that need a private, open‑source alternative to commercial push services such as PushBullet. Because it runs on the user’s own infrastructure, it avoids reliance on external providers and can be integrated into internal tools or workflows that already use REST or WebSocket communication.

Gotify is released under the MIT license, follows semantic versioning, and is maintained as a stable, free‑tier project with no subscription model. It offers Docker images for easy deployment and documentation covering installation, configuration, and API usage.
