Getting Started with MDX
MDX allows you to write JSX in your Markdown documents. This enables you to create rich, interactive content.
What is MDX?
MDX is a syntax that lets you seamlessly write JSX in your Markdown documents. You can import components, like interactive charts or alerts, and embed them within your content.
Code Examples
Here's a simple React component example:
import React from 'react';
interface ButtonProps {
variant: 'primary' | 'secondary';
children: React.ReactNode;
}
export const Button: React.FC<ButtonProps> = ({ variant, children }) => {
return (
<button className="btn btn-" + variant>
{children}
</button>
);
};
Best Practices
Pro Tip: Always validate your MDX syntax before publishing. Use tools like the MDX playground to test your components.
Performance Considerations
- Keep components lightweight
- Use dynamic imports for heavy components
- Optimize images and media
Warning: Remember to handle error boundaries when using custom components in MDX.
