Opportunities

Notion Platform Roadmap

Publish

Copy and paste text (P0)

• Issues highlighting, copying, and pasting the published site’s text that includes lists
• Copy and paste lists technically works, although it does not appear to select and highlight to the user.
• This makes it hard for the reader to interact with the content.
• Browsers: Firefox, Chrome, and Safari

Cannot deep-link to headers (P0)

• Important to guide users to relevant content

H4 headers are not available (P0)

• Useful as a replacement for bold text that needs a header link to deep-link into.

Table of contents (ToC) viewable in different screen sizes (P1)

• Better screen re-sizing than GitBook
• Not as dynamic as HackMD’s navigation button for narrow screen views.
• This make it hard for the reader to navigate longer or complex content.

Global navigation menu is missing (P1)

• A navigation menu to move between related topics helps the user find relevant info.
• The menu should be dynamic based on the screen size and be manually collapsible (Similar to HackMD's UX).

Native readable links (P1)

• Included with GitBook and HackMD

Clickable header links (P1)

• When headers are clicked the deep-link URL is copied to the clipboard.

Light/dark mode (P2)

• Manual toggle for the user

Version control systems (VCS)

Two-way sync (P0)

• Notion to GitLab/GitHub repository
• GitLab/GitHub repository to Notion
• Currently read-only for issues
  • GitLab
  • GitHub
• Potential workaround: Custom API integration

Radical integration (P2)

• Site: radicle.xyz

Research

Security

• [ ] Multi-factor authentication (MFA) (P0)
• [ ] Backups (P0)
  • [ ] Open Markdown files with full functionality, i.e., Published format and table of contents (ToC).

Publish

• [ ] Custom links (P1)
  • [ ] Default notion.so custom appended links
  • [ ] Use custom owned domain

This is not technical advice. Always read the official documentation and do your own research.
