Accessing Notion Data and Integrating with Webstudio

IIRC kanbans and calendars are views of a database so you can fetch them.

Yes you can fetch private db

What type of content do you want to store in notion? Your last comment made me think you are talking about rich text/blogs

Ok, thank you John. And thanks for your course and really good and calm, lowkey videos on youtube.

So, that would be plug and play with the kanbans and calendar which includes the layouts and functionality and not "just" the individual fields ?

For my personal project I would need the html or just markdown of a page working as a wiki, where I can just slam all the stuff from different technical sources that Notion makes so good.

It would work as the content of a page in Webstudio.

But I can see problems ahead with interlinking, lack of table of contents and adding tooltips, but not a must have.

I like simplicity, so I could just copy/paste the entire thing as markdown. But prone to human error it is.

Is table of content meant to be organically added by the community ?

Good to hear about the private db.

Baserow is looking attractive also.

Another usecase is also pages for the dog community where I could tell them to use Notion, with pedigree database and litter galleries and generally just request information from them via Notion.

I think you're looking for something webstudio isn't.

webstudio is a great frontend. yes there is a threshold, you need to understand how it works, but you can display anything, calendars, kanbans, any imaginable king of data....

Notion, Baserow or Strapi is a database with some backend features but usually not enough there

sometimes you need a procedural layer between them, I use n8n because it's easy for me with nocode platform, but there are a lot of more code oriented solutions. you can convert data from any source into your database and prepare it for proper display in your webstudio, if the api Notion, Baserow or Strapi doesn't have enough functionality .

I understand it is a frontend, but I dont fancy reinventig the wheel and want modern approaches to adding stuff to the website. If I was to sell or buy a website I would not want to pay somebody for reinventing the wheel or doing work that has already been done. Best practices and usability and functionality is a minimum. You may be right, but WebStudio or Webflow definetly cover some usecases.

But what do you think I am not geting ? I know I do not have a full grasp of it yet.

not quite plug and play... you need to interact with their api but the notion template in the marketplace will help. But I think you're mixing up two concepts

1. using pages in notion and copying and pasting that data into webstudio
2. using notion databases and fetching that data in realtime within webstudio

Both work just know that with DBs you can't use page content... it has to a columns in a DB which don't support any rich text

thank you. I get the different concepts, number 1 was just a less desirable and flexible way if number 2 was not within my competences...
