**Note:** Sometime you may need to install `dbus-launch` in case you are getting this error (I was getting error on Ubuntu 22.10)

```

```

You can set time interval (in crontab) and display time (in run.sh) as per your requirement.

The messages' list is in `index.js`, edit or add according to your need. Treat this is a simple alert system and use it with your imagination.
