looks like it is using https://www.usebracket.com/pricing which I found from your "about" here https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=vinarun so it's kind of like self-promotion, which is fine? i am just pretty sure the vibe here on hackernews is you should be upfront on who you are in relation to the product/why you are posting it instead of being like "look what i randomly stumbled upon with no affiliation"

not that i care, just for others


What is visual/interactive performance like? I'm guessing (without having used it yet) it's not possible to accidentally try to list 1,000,00 rows in the Notion HTML/JS/CSS UI and crash your browser?

Some questions aloud from my brain while I try to research the answers:

Is the data syncing done with PUB/SUB or some kind of "cron-like" job (so the data can be out of sync for like, up to 5 minutes between database -> notion?)

Is the data pulled fresh from the database anytime the Notion page is loaded? I don't think so.

Could you create a table in Notion that is actually powered by a really complex query backed by Postgres instead of manually having to map all of the fields as 1:1 columns database -> UI? I'd imagine there's a market for that, maybe? Is there? Does this already exist and I'm just not aware of it?


There are limitations by notion on what can be viewed to thousands of records, but you can use a query to pull a filtered view of data in Notion. It's not just a 1:1 mapping but changes in Notion will persist through data in the database that is joined

It's really a way for teams such as customer service who may have their CS ops in Notion to view & change customer data in your data store without adding to an engineer's backlog


is this the right URL for Portal?

https://withportal.dev/

I'm getting a DNS lookup error


looks like it's working now!
