Choosing Notion to create a blog

How I started with Notion

As I was doing research I came across Notion that is a tool to support project management. One particular use case that I discovered is that Notion can in fact be used as a way to create a blog.

Also Notion is free for individuals and it doesn’t look like there’s restrictions to the number of pages / documents that you can create so it was worth trying out at least.

Using Notion

After registering my Notion account and trying it out Notion provides example pages showing you the types of pages you can create. I started by adding new pages and writing content, just like this very post.

After creating content I started looking into the developer documentation to see how I could make use of the Notion API.

It looks like it’s simply a case of connecting to the API url with a token to get all the page content from my account.
