## What is HookTap?

HookTap delivers webhook events as realtime notifications to your devices. Send an HTTP POST request and receive instant alerts on iOS, macOS, and Windows without accounts, dashboards, or complex setup.

Built for developers, automation workflows, monitoring, and everyday system events.

Key features:
Receive realtime push notifications from webhooks
View all events in a clear timeline with timestamps and details
Update Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets with live status
Share webhooks with other devices using secure share codes
Pair devices using a simple code, no login required
Send test events directly from the app to verify your setup

Event types:
push - shows a notification on connected devices
feed - stores an event in the timeline without sending a notification
widget - updates the Home Screen widget with the latest state

How it works:
1. Install HookTap and copy your personal webhook URL
2. Send a POST request with a JSON payload
3. Receive the event instantly on all connected devices
