- Notwife is a web service that notifies users about updates to their followed accounts across social networks and repositories. It tracks mentions, follows, favorites, and other events in near-real-time and sends notifications.
- Notwife has three main components - Push notifications, an API to query updates, and a website to view updates. It is powered by technologies like Site Streams API, Notifo, and EventMachine.
- The goal of Notwife is to provide a free, open source tool for tracking updates across the web in a way that respects users' privacy and decentralizes notifications away from any single company's platform.
