Create a free Linear workspace and set up one project for your product. Add cycles (1–2 week sprints) and put your current to-do items in the backlog. Use the inbox view to triage new ideas and the active cycle view to see only what you're working on this week.
Open Linear - 2Notion
Create a Notion page as your project home. Add child pages for: product spec, architecture decisions, and a change log. Link each Notion doc to the relevant Linear project so context lives alongside the work.
