Nice work - seems like more and more people are using Notion to publish their own little websites. There are a few custom solutions that attempt to fix the problems that the author outlined, such as custom URLs and styling:

- https://super.so/

- https://fruitionsite.com/

- https://www.notion.so/Hosting-Potion-Fast-custom-domains-for...

I also built my own solution which takes a different approach: https://github.com/leoncvlt/loconotion - it caches the Notion page as a static site - admittedly you lose the capability of "syncing" sites instantly but is also makes the site snappier and more responsive as it removes a lot of bloat.

Nice work! Another benefit you didn't mention is that it also makes it a lot more secure - there's no injecting anything into static pages!


Hey thanks for posting this. I didn't know people do this. I think idea to use Notion for publishing is something that I would enjoy and will give it a try.


This looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing. In a quick test on Mobile Safari with the demo site, it doesn’t seem to render a “mobile friendly” version... and worse I can’t scroll left/right. I’ll check a different device to make sure and can an open an issue with more details.


I am seeing this as well. I raised an issue on Github.


I've launched a similar product a while ago that turns documents into websites[0]. Perhaps that might also be interesting to you.
