Formula Code Block.

A supercharged code block for explaining Notion formulas. With the ability to inspect the result, show and hide comments, and more.

While creating the Notion Formulas documentation it became apparent that simple code blocks for explaining things wouldn't cut it. So the following Notion code block was born.

Fun fact: Notion implemented Inspect functionality in their formula editor after I shared this experiment with them.
