notification (frontend)

Bell-icon dropdown and real-time SSE connection for in-app notifications.

What this domain owns

Components: NotificationBell.svelte, NotificationDropdown.svelte. Utilities: notifications.svelte.ts (Svelte 5 reactive store), notifications.ts (API helpers).

What this domain does NOT own

  • SSE infrastructure — the backend's SseEmitterRegistry manages the server-side emitter. The frontend establishes one EventSource connection per session. Connection management lives in notifications.svelte.ts.
  • Notification content rendering — notification payloads contain a contextUrl; the frontend navigates there on click.

Key design: SSE connection

The SSE path is backend → browser directly (not proxied through SvelteKit SSR). The EventSource connects to /api/notifications/stream. On receive, the reactive store updates the unread count and the bell dropdown in real time.

Backend SseEmitterRegistry → /api/notifications/stream → EventSource in browser

Key components
