Push Notification Best Practices

This is a reference guide for when you're wiring up push notifications and need to avoid the gotchas that break delivery. It covers iOS APNS and Android FCM with decision trees for permission timing (don't ask on first launch), payload types (data-only for background work), and token management (never cache long-term). The anti-patterns table alone is worth it: things like using notification payloads for background processing on Android or forgetting that tokens change on reinstall. Good for initial setup when you need the checklist, and debugging when notifications mysteriously stop working. The format is quick pattern plus deep dive, so you can scan or dig in depending on urgency.
