## What it is
Chanify is a safe and simple notification tool that lets developers and system administrators push notifications to iOS and macOS devices via a REST API. This repository contains the Go-based command line tool and self-hostable server, distributed as binaries and Docker images.

## Use cases

- self-host a push notification server
- notify me when a cron job finishes
- send alerts from ci pipeline to my phone
- push webhook notifications without a third-party service
- send messages to ios via curl

## When to choose
- you want simple, private push notifications to Apple devices via a REST API or CLI
