Notion: Your Connected Workspace and Database Guide
Notion is an all-in-one workspace: notes, wikis, databases, and project management in one flexible tool. It uses blocks you combine into pages and databases. This guide covers what Notion offers and who it's for.
Blocks and databases
Notion is built from blocks: text, headings, lists, images, embeds, and databases (tables, boards, calendars). You nest blocks in pages and link between pages to build wikis, docs, and task systems. Templates help you start quickly. It suits individuals and teams who want one place for notes, documentation, and light project management. The learning curve is moderate; once you're used to blocks and databases, it's powerful. Free and paid tiers are available; teams often use paid for collaboration and history.
