One example of setting up "poor man's notification system" would consist of creating a UserNotifications
database table, containing the userId
(fk), a message
, a createdate
and a readdate
bit field.
When the user logs in or hits a page, simply get the unread messages for the user and display them in whatever way you like. You can fine-grain this to your needs with other tables and such. For a non-real-time use case, this might be sufficient.
If you need more real-time bells and whistles and/or want to offload the heavy lifting to an external messaging platform, there are many posts such as this one on here, that can help you on your way.
