I did not suggest you use the Galago software, just this specification:
https://people.gnome.org/~mccann/docs/notification-spec/notification-spec-latest.html
older versions of which were hosted on:
http://www.galago-project.org/specs/notification/
(which is how it came to be known as the "Galago (notification) spec").

If you want to use an existing library, libnotify is what you are looking
for:
https://developer.gnome.org/libnotify/

All these are GNOME URLs, but the protocol is also supported by KDE Plasma
and by other desktop environments:
