# Notifications

> This Notifications component is a reusable UI element built with shadcn/ui and TypeScript (TSX) that displays a bell icon with a notification count badge. When the user clicks the bell, a popover card opens directly beneath the icon, aligned to its center, containing a scrollable list of notifications. Each notification shows a title, description, and timestamp in a clean, structured layout.
