So Notion is essentially a CMS now. I still wonder what one could realistically do with the API other than small quirky experiments

- yawnxyz 5y agoI'm using Notion as a CMS for a static site I've built for a grant-funded academic project. My collaborators edit the project page, which includes nested pages, tables, and even uploaded videos and images. After they've updated it, they click a special link that triggers a Vercel build, which converts Notion into JSON for the site to build into static pages. I'm using this as my backbone: https://github.com/benborgers/potion https://github.com/benborgers/potion and it's a lot more powerful than the Notion API... this reads tables and lets you show image attachments and more
- FalconSensei 5y agoOne of the things I use notion for is to centralize my trackings: - tv, movie and actors from trakt.tv; - books from gooodreads - anime and manga from anilist The reason is that: I can make better notes, I can add extra data/properties, easier to organize in a kanban or other visualizations. But now, if I add more movies on my trakt, I run a script to export to CSV, and then have to import the new rows into Notion. With this, now my exports can add the new rows and update the data.
