loriscomba··on Show HN: Publish a Notion database as a Next.js blog
Hi HN, I’m Loris. We use Notion to write and edit our blog posts, and I wanted to share the setup that connects it to our website.

The workflow is simple: write an article in Notion, check Published, and the website picks it up through a webhook. Later edits follow the same path. The database stays private.

I’ve put together a Next.js 16 template with the code and setup instructions. You can run it with sample content before connecting your own Notion account.

A few details that might be useful:

- It uses the official Notion API. - Integration webhooks work with a free Notion account. - The TypeScript core has no runtime dependencies. - The code is MIT licensed.

There are a few limits worth knowing before trying it. Webhooks are asynchronous, so publishing isn’t literally instant. Removing a post also won’t revoke images someone has already downloaded or cached.

You can browse the demo here: https://publish-from-notion.vercel.app/blog

I’d be interested to hear from anyone trying this on an existing site, especially where the setup doesn’t fit the way you organize your Notion database.
