Chapter 2: Workspace Navigation, Sharing, and Appearance

As an online tool, Notion has many features for collaboration, which means appearance and navigation need to stay consistent across platforms. There are still differences and nuances in how the tool looks and functions for each user, and these differences will be covered in this chapter. In this chapter, we're going to cover the following main topics:

Quick Find and breadcrumb navigation
Sidebar navigation
Sharing and collaboration options
Page appearance options

You will learn how to navigate Notion through the Quick Find search option and Breadcrumb, which, in Notion, is similar to a traditional File Explorer path, but instead of showing a folder path leading to a file, it shows page paths going down the hierarchy leading to a page.

Additionally, you will learn how to use the sidebar as a file and folder manager and gain an understanding of how each page will appear in the sidebar for ease...
