Hello all, I am thinking of using appwrite as my backend for an upcoming project. However I am unable to figure out how to send a notification to a user after a certa in event happens. Has anyone done this before? I am planning to develop an app using Flutter As far as I can tell, this should be done using cloud fuctions but im still unsure Thanks

TL;DR
User is asking for guidance on implementing push notifications in Appwrite for a Flutter app. Another user confirms that Appwrite currently does not have a built-in push notification method but suggests using Cloud Functions to integrate with a push provider. No specific guides are mentioned.

Appwrite does not (yet) have any built in push notifications method. Cloud Functions is just a way for you to run your own code within Appwrite. So yes, you could build an integration with a push provider, and use a Function to send notifications
