We've just started using Notion... I think in the end it's going to be really valuable but it takes a little while for everyone to make using it a habit!

It's perfect for techy teams as you can use trello-like layouts, embed code samples, write in Markdown... All the stuff we tend to be familiar with already.

For us Notion is particularly useful as not only can you easily share notes, links, code examples etc across the team, but it also lets you quickly generate a PDF of the content which you can add to Jira tickets / send to clients, etc, which is so handy!

There really isn't any Markdown in Notion. Just some shortcuts that remind of Markdown. You can't import/export Markdown and get proper Notion pages.

I've been able to both import and export Markdown into/from Notion... All of my Dev posts start life in Notion 🤷‍♀️

But yep what I mean most of all is the shortcuts, so you can write as you would a Markdown file, eg to create headers, links, format text etc.
