Solve : How to send push notification to web browser??

Answer»

I have been reading for past few hours about Push Notification API and Web Notification API. I also discovered that Google & Apple gives push notification service for free VIA GCM and APNS respectively.

I am trying to understand if we can IMPLEMENT push notification to browsers using Desktop Notification, which I believe is what Web Notification API does. I SAW a google documentation on how this can be done for Chrome here & here.

Now what am still not able to understand is:

  • Can we USE GCM/APNS to send push notification to all Web Browsers including Firefox & Safari?
  • If not via GCM can we have our own back-end to do the same?
I believe all these answered in one answer can help a lot of people who are having SIMILAR confusions.
