Notion is an amazing tool that helps you organize your work and you can pretty much adjust to all of your needs. Also, there are a lot of templates...

Nice ideas!
I'm also using Notion, in many ways similar to you, like for note taking, knowledge base, plus project and blog ideas.
I still use Trello for task management though, as the last time I tried it, using Notion's kanban felt clunky in comparison.
I agree! It was a nice article and Notion is a powerful tool for my notes and blog posts but I like Trello for my task management. 🤘🏻🤓🤘🏻
Notion's kanban is indeed a bit clunky but it's good enough for me 😅
It's pretty cool to learn that there's people using Notion with the same purpose, tho 🤘
Me, as of 5 minutes ago.
Thanks for introducing me to Notion! Had started the migration from random bookmarks to OneNote a few moments ago but I just do not enjoy the UI, and it also seems to lack a lot of neat features like creating (relatively) searchable databases. Cheers! 🍻
It's pretty cool that I introduced you to Notion! Give it a try and I'm sure you won't be disappointed
You mentioned that you copy and paste the links into quick link. I do the exact same thing with blogs and stuff that I currently can't read but want to later on but I use the share functionality of chrome (android) and use notion as target app. This allows me to choose into which database I want to send the link to. As a bonus notion copies the content of the blog into notion itself and maintains the link. Same goes with working at my laptop. I installed the notion chrome add on which allows the same share functionality.
Maybe I'll write a blog about how I organize these links and use them inside topic pages cause that has been the main benefit of notion for me.
That sounds pretty useful, actually, and it would be great to see how you organize your stuff with it 👍
I was using it the same way for a while, until I got an idea of storing my learning on a repository on GitHub. Now, I'm able to track what I have learnt with good querying support thanks to GitHub. But this idea is also equally effective I would say.
I started using it this week for work task and will eventually use it for other lists! It's a great tool!
Good luck on your journey, I have recently started on mine too, and in my own experience I've found it to be lacking a certain je ne sais quoi for task management.
One thing I'd love is repeatable tasks, has anyone done this without using a workaround?
It's a really amazing tool and will surely boost your work and studies!
At the start, I was a bit reticent about using it but now I see its true power! 🤘
These tips are very awesome!
Before start using Notion, my preferred tool was Trello, but with these ideas will discard Trello forever hehehe
Yes! Notion's Kanban is a bit clunky but I'm sure you will have no problems with it!
etc.
The core principle, the browser is my centralized work platform. Open a VSCode editor, there are only 2 desktop programs: browser and VSCode(sometimes use Evernote desktop version), because I don’t want to open a bunch of desktop programs and switch between them.
Workflow and tools depend on personal choice, there is no right or wrong, the best for you is the best
The irony that this is going into my long list of web dev related bookmarks until I get around to implementing the ideas. :D
Ah, the dreadful postponed list 😅
I wish Notion had a way to create new notes from an email. That's the one feature that is holding me back from using it. (And using some kludge doesn't scratch that itch. 😁)
Nice, is it free ?
Yes, Shaiju, Notion is absolutely free. It's only paid if you want to have multiple people on the same space
This is so helpful. I have been using Trello, Pocket (reading list), OneNote, etc. it's nice to have it all in one place. Kudos!!
Notion is a great tool! Give it a go and you'll see it pretty much has everything you need
This is great! I’ve always wondered if and how other developers use Notion, for non work-related tasks. Thanks for sharing this.
I love this. I've been trying to organize my Notion setup and settled on the Engineering Wiki template with some customizations similar to yours.
Nice! It's great to know that my setup is somewhat similar to yours. It tells me that we pretty much have the same barriers that we want to jump over! 😁
Awesome I like reading all of these Notion articles it gives me ideas on how I can improve my own workflow.
For the reading list, how do you get the images? Do you manually add a cover to each thing you add to reading list?
I'm using OneNote now to take my notes and do most things you describe here. Anyone used both? Should I give it a try?
