+Introduction
+============
+
+::: {.alert .alert-danger}
+**This module is terribly untested and will only work with Firefox as it's
+missing payload encryption. Other vendors require it all the time. Public and
+private keys are also statically set in it.**
+:::
+
+This is an implementation of the server bits of [XEP-XXXX: Web Push].
+It allows clients to register a "push server" which is notified about new
+messages while the user is offline, disconnected or the session is hibernated
+by [mod_smacks].
+
+Push servers are provided by browser vendors.
+
+This module is heavily based on [mod_cloud_notify].
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+  Option                               Default           Description
+  ------------------------------------ ----------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+  `push_notification_important_body`   `New Message!`    The body text to use when the stanza is important (see above), no message body is sent if this is empty
+  `push_max_devices`                   `5`               The number of allowed devices per user (the oldest devices are automatically removed if this threshold is reached)
+
+There are privacy implications for enabling these options because
+plaintext content and metadata will be shared with centralized servers
+(the pubsub node) run by arbitrary app developers.
+
+Installation
+============
+
+Same as any other module.
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+Configured in-band by supporting clients.
