Summary
The Frontend Mentor notification challenge became a study of explicit read actions, quiet hierarchy, URL-backed filtering, and honest browser-local continuity.
Result
A public responsive release pairs semantic notification rows with explicit state controls, navigation-safe filters, storage fallback, focus recovery, and a clear restore path.
Lesson
Notification state should communicate what still needs attention through redundant hierarchy and explicit scope, not urgency styling or implied server state.
