Amazon Device Messaging (ADM) lets you send messages to Amazon devices that run your app, so you can keep users up to date and involved. Whether you're giving a user a game update or letting them know that a message from their buddy has arrived, ADM helps you stay in touch.
Thank you @cooperlegend for motivating me (?)
Note that ADM is not supported on Kindle Fire (1st Generation) devices.

To start you need to Create your app in Amazon App console.
developer.amazon.com
After you got the credentials and your apptoken you need to place the apptoken in the file api_key.txt inside the project Assets (Files folder).
Similar to FirebaseMessaging this Library depends on a similar setup. You need to have a Service named AmazonMessaging.
See the Example project on how the code may look for. Even the starter is adapted in this Example.
Also note the needed Manifestchanges:
Add the following line to your Main
It forces the IDE to organize the Assets in a way ADM expects.
A B4J Project for the Sender-Part is also provided. You need to have your Apps Client-Id and Secret to send a Notification.
