Install the app and turn on notifications

Install Tooling Metrics as an app on your device and enable push notifications.

Updated

Prerequisites: None.

Required permission: None — every user can install the app and manage their own notifications.

Tooling Metrics is a Progressive Web App (PWA) — it can be installed like a native app on desktop and mobile, and it can push notifications to you even when the browser tab isn’t open. Both are optional and configured from the same screen.

Section titled “Turn on push notifications”

Once enabled, the tab shows Push notifications are ON.

Notes

Section titled “Notes”
  • If your browser reports notifications as blocked, you’ll need to re-enable them from your browser’s own site settings for Tooling Metrics — the Notification Settings tab shows a “Not receiving notifications?” help panel with steps specific to your browser and operating system.
  • Push notifications require both browser permission and a service worker registration; if you deny the permission prompt, you’ll need to reset it in your browser’s site settings before you can turn notifications on again — Tooling Metrics itself can’t re-prompt you.
  • Installing the app is not required to receive push notifications, and vice versa — they’re independent, both optional.
