• Persistent Storage: Store user preferences and notification data locally.
• User-Friendly Interface: Design an intuitive GUI for easy interaction.
• Optional API Integration: Allow fetching notifications from external sources.
• Silent Mode: Include an option for notifications without sound.

Implementation:

• Set up project structure and version control.
• Implement core notification functionality.
• Develop a GUI for notification configuration.
• Add support for scheduling.
• Integrate customization options.
• Implement local storage using SQLite or JSON.
• Test for cross-platform compatibility.
• Document code and usage instructions.
