Python is a general-purpose language, can be used to develop both desktop and web applications. By using a package available in Python named win10toast , we can create desktop notifications. It is an easy way to get notified when some event occurs.

Created By Pratyush Mishra

The package is available in Pypi and it is installed using pip.

pip install win10toast

To create notifications we have to import the win10toast module. Then create an object to ToastNotifier class and by using the method show_toast we create a notification. It contains header or title of that notification, actual message, duration of that notification and icon for that notification. show_toast method is a instance of notification settings.

Source Code :

# import win10toast

from win10toast import ToastNotifier

# create an object to ToastNotifier class

n = ToastNotifier()

n.show_toast("Hi", "You got notification", duration = 10,

icon_path ="icon.ico")
