To subscribe to [Web Push Notifications](https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/push-notifications/) you have to provide an Base64 application server key that needs to be converted to an [Uint8Array](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Uint8Array). This package helps you with the conversion from a Base64 string to an `Uint8Array`.

## Installation 🏗

```sh
$ npm install --save convert-vapid-public-key
```

or if you use [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com) 🐈

	const subscribeOptions = {
		userVisibleOnly: true,
		applicationServerKey: convertVapidKey("<your-base64-vapid-public-key>"),
	};
	const pushSubscription = await registration.pushManager.subscribe(subscribeOptions);
