# Notifications

We crafted a custom plugin inspired by vue-notifyjs which is simple yet effective.

# Usage

To use the notification plugin, import it from the components folder. Note that this is already done in src/main.js

import Notifications from './components/NotificationPlugin'
Vue.use(Notifications)

# Trigger Notifications

export default {

  methods: {
    notifyVue (verticalAlign, horizontalAlign) {
      var color = Math.floor((Math.random() * 4) + 1)
      this.$notify(
        {
          message: 'Welcome to <b>Material Dashboard</b> - a beautiful freebie for every web developer.',
          icon: 'add_alert',

</script>

Note: <notifications></notifications> can be declared only once anywhere in your app, preferably in your root component so the notification component is alive inside any other components.
