2. Push Notifications. These notifications are sent by an application to any device through a communication/push server. This library provides support for RECEIVING push notifications. For push notifications to work, you need to (1) register the devices, which can receive notifications, on some server/db, and (2) setup notification listeneres on these devices. To register devices, please refer to [Subscription](https://github.com/wix/react-native-notifications/blob/master/website/docs/docs/subscription.md). To setup notification listeneres, please refer to [Events](https://github.com/wix/react-native-notifications/blob/master/website/docs/docs/notifications-events.md). To send a notification you need to use a communication/push server. SENDING push notifications is NOT part of this library.
