## Documentation
```javascript
Toastify({
text: "This is a toast",
duration: 3000,
destination: "https://github.com/apvarun/toastify-js",
newWindow: true,
close: true,
gravity: "top", // `top` or `bottom`
position: "left", // `left`, `center` or `right`
stopOnFocus: true, // Prevents dismissing of toast on hover
style: {
background: "linear-gradient(to right, #00b09b, #96c93d)",
},
onClick: function(){} // Callback after click
}).showToast();
```

* See the [changelog](https://github.com/apvarun/toastify-js/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md)
### Add own custom classes
If you want to use custom classes on the toast for customizing (like info or warning for example), you can do that as follows:
```javascript
Toastify({
text: "This is a toast",
className: "info",
style: {
background: "linear-gradient(to right, #00b09b, #96c93d)",
}
}).showToast();
```
Multiple classes also can be assigned as a string, with spaces between class names.
### Add some offset
If you want to add offset to the toast, you can do that as follows:
```javascript
Toastify({
text: "This is a toast with offset",
offset: {
x: 50, // horizontal axis - can be a number or a string indicating unity. eg: '2em'
y: 10 // vertical axis - can be a number or a string indicating unity. eg: '2em'
},
}).showToast();
```
Toast will be pushed 50px from right in x axis and 10px from top in y axis.
**Note:**
If `position` is equals to `left`, it will be pushed from left.
If `gravity` is equals to `bottom`, it will be pushed from bottom.
