title: How to receive push notification in a desktop application
body: <p>I am building an desktop app on Windows and I want to be able to receive push notification from my server. But as long as I search I can't find any way to do it (GCM, Window push, etc). I am developing my desktop app in Java with the <code>javaFX</code> library.</p>
  
  <p>Is their a way to receive push from my server, something like a service worker like in Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox that I could implement in Java ?</p>
  
  <p>The only way that I found is to do some GET each x minute on the server to see if there is a new message to display. But I don't think this is a good solution</p>
