    • Basic blocks include page, to-do list, headings, bulleted list, numbered list, toggle list, quote, divider, and callout.

    • You can add databases like tables, boards, calendars, galleries, and lists to existing pages or as new pages.

    • Include media like images, web bookmarks, videos, audio, code, and files inside any Notion page.

    • Content from more than 500 apps can be embedded into Notion pages.

    • Advanced blocks include math equation, template button, breadcrumbs, and table of contents.

  • Blocks can be rearranged through drag and drop, deleted, duplicated, converted into another type of block, moved to another page, commented on, or changed in color.
