We built and hosted a custom web application with #nocode...and started making sales!

First-time users of the Digital Productivity Coach are often surprised to see that the entire product is built using @NotionHQ - a workspace organization tool.

2/ Notion was by far the best tool for building our MVP. Here’s three reasons why:

3/ Links, organization, and content management are super easy

We tried building the DPC with ‘questionnaire’ tools, but our “choose-your-own-adventure” style quickly became a tangled mess.

3a/ In Notion, creating new pages is easy, and if you move pages around, all of the links update automatically. We can use hyperlinks to navigate between pages, and even within a single page.

4/ Entire notebooks are easily shared online.

This means everyone can try the Digital Productivity Coach without needing to sign up for a Notion account. For us, we can release and update the DPC instantly, without ever thinking about a server configuration.

5/ It looks good with minimal fuss.

Notion’s default look is quite nice. It has the perfect amount of flexibility, but enough constraints to keep you from messing it up. Best of all, we don’t have to touch a single line of css.

6/ Not only did we build the product in Notion, we coordinated our efforts in it too. You can read more about our asynchronous work style here: tasshin.com/blog/behind-th…

7/ We aren’t the first people to use Notion to share ideas widely. h/t to:

@kjk's blog is hosted with Notion
@khemaridh powers his Radjobs board with it
@kirisima has excellent Notion templates

8/ Maybe one day the Digital Productivity coach will have its own dedicated webapp. Until then, hundreds of people are using it to become more productive.
