How I Organize My Projects with Notion

Introduction

When you start coding or creating projects, it’s easy to get lost between ideas, code, files, and deadlines.

I personally use Notion to keep everything organized: my tasks, my projects, and even my future ideas.

In this article, I’ll share my simple method to organize projects with Notion.


Why Notion?

  • It’s free (or almost)
  • Flexible (databases, pages, lists)
  • You can centralize everything in one place (ideas, tasks, notes, code snippets)

My 3-Step Method

1. Create a "Projects" database

Each project is a card with:

  • Project name
  • Status (idea, in progress, completed)
  • Priority
  • Deadline

2. Add a page for each project

Inside the page, I include:

  • A simple to-do list
  • Resources (links, docs, images)
  • A "Problems & Solutions" section

3. Use different views

  • Board view (like Trello) → track progress
  • Table view → see details
  • Calendar view → check deadlines

Example

Conclusion

Organizing projects saves time and keeps you motivated.

Notion is a great choice, but you can also try tools like Trello, Todoist, or ClickUp.
