Can I use novu for react-native?

Is there a similar component like notification-center in react for react-native? If not would I able to use novu in react-native application?

Currently I am not aware that we have a notification-center for react-native however it is something we have considered supporting. You can use Novu for the backend of your react-native app but you will need to build the notification-center yourself.

So, can I use pure socket client in the react-native app to connect to novu socket server using web sockets? And use it like this socket.on("notification_received")?

May I know the web socket url of novu server (cloud) So that I can connect directly using socket client in the react native app I can see this url in network tab wss://ws.novu.co/socket.io/EIO=4&transport=websocket So, can I use the above url to connect directly to novu web socket server using socket client?

@San Yes above URL is correct. You can use this websocket URL to connect with ws service. Feel free to ping me if you face any issue

@San Are you able to use our WS url in socket client and build custom in-app notiifcation center in react native?

Not yet We might wait until novu comes up with built in component for react native If requirement is urgent from our side then I might start using WS url and implement my custom in app notification center in react native Will let you know if I start with custom implementation @Pawan Jain
