NotionNext

NotionNext is a tool that turns a Notion workspace into a public blog. Notion is a popular note-taking and document app that many people already use to organize their writing. NotionNext reads content from a Notion database and publishes it as a fully functional website, no traditional web server or database required.

The idea is straightforward: you write and organize your posts inside Notion the way you normally would, and NotionNext handles converting those pages into a website that anyone can visit. The generated site is static, meaning the pages are pre-built files served directly to visitors, which keeps hosting costs low and page loads fast.

Deployment is designed to work with Vercel, a hosting platform that has a free tier and handles the publishing process automatically. The setup takes only a few minutes and the README describes a three-step quickstart for developers already familiar with Node.js. Multiple deployment options are supported beyond Vercel as well.

Several visual themes are included, with styles named Next, Medium, Hexo, and Fukasawa, each giving the blog a different appearance. A live preview site lets you switch between themes before committing to one. The project also supports multiple commenting systems, so visitors can leave responses on individual posts.

The technology underneath includes Next.js (a JavaScript framework for building websites), Tailwind CSS (a styling system), and the Notion API (which pulls content from Notion). Readers of the resulting blog do not need to know any of this; it runs invisibly.

The project is released under the MIT license. The README and most documentation are written in Chinese, though an English version is also provided. It targets writers and creators who already use Notion and want a quick way to share that content publicly without building a website from scratch.
