Push notifications are a topic searched for frequently on this site, and I’ve mentioned some great push notification resources – such as this push notification tutorial on which one commenter stated,

Certainly the most tedious part of enabling push notifications is setting up the certificates, it’s a lengthy (and rather thoughtless) process that you probably would rather not do especially during those times when the developer website seems to be a bit laggy.

You can find the script on the Github repository.

A nice little script to help save your sanity if you find yourself having to enable push notifications for a number of apps.
