Overview of this book

Notion is note-taking, wiki management, and task and project management software that gives you control of your working environment. By creating pages using a variety of block types and database styles, the possibilities are endless. This book will help you overcome challenges in managing large projects using Notion and creating documents using real-time updates with a great deal of flexibility, allowing everyone to have a customized view as per their needs. With this book, you'll become well-versed with Notion, where you’ll learn how to access, create, and change a workspace utilizing all the blocks, database views and properties, and advanced features and functions. From a table or list view to a Kanban board or gallery view, you'll get to explore several database options available in Notion. You’ll learn the skills to build pages, customize the aesthetics, create templates, and store, organize, and surface information through databases, all while building a system and workflow that works for you in your context. The book will also demonstrate how to import and export information and combine Notion with other tools using the API.

Note

Some of the constants are numbers and some are Booleans. Boolean constants are most likely to be used, but if you require a constant to calculate something, number constants can be useful.

The e constant is the base of the natural logarithm. This means when you are creating equations inside a formula using any log functions or operators, this can be put in to create the intended output. The Help window shown in Figure 8.4 shows how it can be used. It demonstrates how to get a result by using two = signs in a Notion formula property:
