Hi Vamsi,

You can use inline VF page on standard layout and popup alert whenever field is updated.

Below is the same snippet for opportunity. 
<apex:page standardController="Opportunity">
ISCHANGED(Date__c)
<script type ="text/javascript">
{
window.alert("Alert");
}
</script>
</apex:page>

Hope above information was helpful.

Please mark as Best Answer so that it can help others in the future.

Thanks,
Vinay Kumar

You can use Platform Events (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.platform_events.meta/platform_events/platform_events_intro.htm) to implement the requirment. Try doing following 
  1. Setup a Platform Event and fire(publish) the event from trigger (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.platform_events.meta/platform_events/platform_events_publish_apex.htm) when community user updates the record . 
  2. Suscribe to that platform event in the lightning component (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.platform_events.meta/platform_events/platform_events_subscribe_lc.htm)and show a toast when event is received. 
You can go through the documentation mentioned in links above. This should give good idea of using platform events.
