 1 | # How to Use Notion as a CMS
 2 | 
 3 | Notion is a powerful online database tool with nearly infinite flexibility. For this reason, it’s attracted dedicated users since it was first launch. In 2021, it published a public Notion API in beta, making it yet more accessible and customizable! In this video series, I'll show you how to use Notion as a light-weight CMS. While not ideal for scaffolding out an entire site, it can act as a very capable CMS for users with mostly static content. For the one or two sections on your site that need regular updating, why not use something like Notion? 
 4 | 
 5 | I'll show you how to: 
 6 | 1. Create the basic site with ViteJS and Open Props using HTML and CSS
 7 | 2. Set up Notion and create and add an API Integration
 8 | 3. Publish your site to Netlify for free
 9 | 4. Create a Netlify serverless function with the Notion SDK for JavaScript and the Netlify CLI (including environmental variables)
10 | 5. How to fetch the live Notion data from your Netlify serverless function
11 | 6. Write a skeleton loading animation to improve the site UX
