GitHub is a web-based platform where developers store code, track changes, and collaborate on projects. With MagicBell's GitHub integration, your team can get notifications directly linked to their GitHub workflow.

APNs is the Apple Push Notification service. It is the service used to send notifications to iOS devices. It is a robust and efficient service that allows you to send notifications to your users' devices in real-time.
