Hi guys, any idea on how to show notifications from KMP jvm desktop app? I tried SystemTray. It works on Windows. Not on macOS. Any help is very much appreciated.

Use the Tray() composable. IIRC it has a state which you use to push notifications into

Thanks alex. I tried it from androidx.compose.ui.window.Window and it did not work.

Thanks alot @Zoff

[Zoff]

its not a published lib yet. so a bit manual copying the files into your project required

[Alex Styl]

@Binish Mathew you cannot place a Tray inside a Window. Here is how to use it

[Alex Styl]

@Zoff is your lib using native apis on all platforms?

[Binish Mathew]

Thanks. Let me try again.

[Zoff]

no only on macos and linux. on windows tray is used. see my usage example linked above

first call init_system_tray() on windows. you can copy my whole class if need be

I just implemented: https://github.com/mirzemehdi/KMPNotifier/

Took me 5min and works on JVM, Android and iOS. Might be worth looking into it
