Oliver

Oliver will help developers bridge the gap between Web applications and the desktop environment.

This small JavaScript library includes simple methods that can be used to trigger the popup that asks the user's permission via the browser's own UI & feedback system, and all the necessary tools for displaying the in-desktop notifications afterwards.

Any type of text-based message can be displayed, along with a small icon (image) next to it.

A demo is included with the download package.

Requirements:

• JavaScript enabled on client side

Limitations:

• It may not work on all browsers.
