Question 1

How to customize icons in dom-notifications?

Accepted Answer

Specify custom icon classes in the options object under the icons property, such as setting icons.error to your own CSS class. The README shows an example with Octicons but allows full replacement.

Question 2

dom-notifications vs Noty which is better for simple projects?

Accepted Answer

dom-notifications is lighter and Atom-inspired with GitHub integration, ideal for customization, while Noty offers more built-in animations and themes out-of-the-box. Choose based on whether you need deep control or ready-made features.

Question 3

How do I add a GitHub issue button to error notifications?

Accepted Answer

Set the repo option to your GitHub repository URL when initializing dom-notifications. This automatically adds a 'Create an issue for this error' button to all error-type notifications, as documented in the options section.

Question 4

Can I use dom-notifications with React?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but it requires wrapping since it's a vanilla JS component based on Nanocomponent. You can manage the DOM element lifecycle in React, but it's not natively integrated like a React-specific library.

Question 5

How to style dom-notifications without the default CSS?

Accepted Answer

Import the module without styles using require('dom-notifications/main') and manually inject the CSS with insert-css, or write your own styles. The README provides a 'Use without styles' section with code examples.

Question 6

Does dom-notifications support accessibility for screen readers?

Accepted Answer

The README doesn't mention accessibility features, so it likely lacks ARIA roles and attributes by default. You may need to add these manually to ensure compatibility with assistive technologies.
