"Receive messages on Signal via a simple API. Perfect for notifications and alerts."

"curl -d ' Houthi alert' https://signalbot.one/api/..."

If you don't know what "API" or "webhooks" are, then you're probably not the target audience. That's fine. Your aunt probably doesn't know what an "enterprise workload engine"[1] is, but that doesn't mean vmware needs to provide a dumbed down description so everyone can understand.

"Receive messages on Signal via a simple API. Perfect for notifications and alerts." is not "how it works" but "how you use it".

This is "hacker news". A hacker is typically interested in how something works (under the hood).

If a hacker asks "how does this mobile phone work?" then they are not looking for "well here you press a button and then here you speak" but something about radio waves and cell towers and mobile operating systems.

When I looked, this information wasn't there. Only the "buy me a coffee" link. Now it is, thanks.
