User Notifications in Livewire with Megaphone

Megaphone is a Livewire UI for Laravel-based user notifications. It uses built-in Laravel notification features to allow you to add bell icons to your Livewire app:

use MBarlow\Megaphone\Types\Important;
use App\Models\User;
 
$notification = new Important(
    // Notification Title
    'Expected Downtime!',
    // Notification Body
    'We are expecting some downtime today at around 15:00 UTC for some planned maintenance. Read more on a blog post!',
    'https://example.com/link', // Optional
    'Read More...' // Optional
);
 
$user->notify($notification);

Using the above code, you can render notifications in your app using the provided Blade component:

<livewire:megaphone></livewire:megaphone>

• Custom notification types
• Command to clear announcements
