Notion graph view as an iOS app, would you actually use this?
- The bigger node with the disk icon is a database
- The small rectangle is a page inside that database
- A grey solid line is parent/child, so database to its pages, page to subpage
- The blue dotted line is a relation property, connecting items that live in different databases
Two things I cared about.
Expanding the pages inside a database into nodes, and drawing relation properties as edges.
I tried a few of the existing Notion graph tools and they mostly work off links and mentions, which left me looking at a nearly empty canvas.
Everything in my workspace lives in databases and is wired together with relations.
Before I build anything I'd like to ask:
Would you use an app like this? If not, the reason is what I most want to hear.
Would you open it on your phone? This is the part I'm least sure about. It might be a desktop screen that I'm stubbornly trying to put on mobile.
If you would use it, what would you open it for? Finding orphaned pages, checking what a project touches, something else?
There's nothing for sale and no link. I just want a read on this before I start. Blunt answers welcome.
