A computer-implemented method comprising: receiving, by a computing device (100, 200), notification data from a platform, application, and/or service, wherein the notification data indicates the occurrence of an event associated with the platform, application, and/or service; determining, a notification type associated with at least one portion of the notification data; selecting, by the computing device (100, 200), based on each notification type of the notification data, a respective template graphical user interface GUI view suitable for presenting each respective portion of the at least one portion of notification data from a plurality of template graphical user interface GUI views; outputting, by the computing device (100, 200), for display, a graphical alert that the notification data was received; and automatically generating, by the computing device (100, 200), an application GUI view by at least populating one or more fields of each selected template graphical user interface GUI view with the respective portion of the notification data; determining, based on the notification data, a primary action associated with a portion of the notification data, wherein the primary action is a most likely action to be taken against the notification data; and inserting a selectable element for initiating the primary action into a location of the application GUI view, specified by the template graphical user interface GUI view that is visible when the application GUI view replaces the graphical alert that the notification data was received; and responsive to receiving an indication of user input associated with the graphical alert, replacing the graphical alert with the application GUI view. receiving, by a computing device (100, 200), notification data from a platform, application, and/or service, wherein the notification data indicates the occurrence of an event associated with the platform, application, and/or service; determining, a notification type associated with at least one portion of the notification data; selecting, by the computing device (100, 200), based on each notification type of the notification data, a respective template graphical user interface GUI view suitable for presenting each respective portion of the at least one portion of notification data from a plurality of template graphical user interface GUI views; outputting, by the computing device (100, 200), for display, a graphical alert that the notification data was received; and automatically generating, by the computing device (100, 200), an application GUI view by at least populating one or more fields of each selected template graphical user interface GUI view with the respective portion of the notification data; determining, based on the notification data, a primary action associated with a portion of the notification data, wherein the primary action is a most likely action to be taken against the notification data; and inserting a selectable element for initiating the primary action into a location of the application GUI view, specified by the template graphical user interface GUI view that is visible when the application GUI view replaces the graphical alert that the notification data was received; and determining, based on the notification data, a primary action associated with a portion of the notification data, wherein the primary action is a most likely action to be taken against the notification data; and inserting a selectable element for initiating the primary action into a location of the application GUI view, specified by the template graphical user interface GUI view that is visible when the application GUI view replaces the graphical alert that the notification data was received; and responsive to receiving an indication of user input associated with the graphical alert, replacing the graphical alert with the application GUI view.
