mdx VS next-mdx-remote

Semantify was made for content creators, marketers, and anyone looking to enhance their long-form written content. Currently only supporting MDX-based content, It automates the enrichment of MDX blog posts by adding AI-generated Q&A sections that summarize the content, and recommendations for semantically similar posts. This not only makes the content more accessible and engaging but also helps in establishing deeper connections between different posts, ultimately keeping the reader engaged for longer periods.

> We thought this would be a no-brainer and that there would be some CMS/SSG libraries out there that made this Markdown conversion process easy and facilitated integration with any number of frontend frameworks.

You thought correct:

- NextJS MDX integration: https://nextjs.org/docs/pages/building-your-application/conf...

The example above uses react-markdown, but you can use any library you want to render the markdown content. You can also use a transform function to modify the markdown content during the build process. Here is an example that uses MDX to compile the markdown content.

MDX is a js library that allows us to import a markdown file as a react component and use it anywhere.

/blog/ - This directory contains all the markdown files, of your site blogs, you can simply add a new blog by using markdown, or simply remove a blog file by deleting its file, you can combine the markdown with MDX, resulting a well-written blog post.

Hey HN!

This is a little personal project I've been hacking on for the past ~week, somewhat inspired by this blog post [0] ("My Wonderful HTML Email Workflow").

Basically I just wanted an easy way to create email templates in MDX [1] (Markdown + JSX), using React Email [2] components.

It's still a bit of a work in progress (and a bit slow at the moment) but wanted to share in case anyone else finds it interesting!

That’s why formats like Markdown (MD) and MDX (MD with support for JSX) are so popular for use cases like documentation, knowledge bases, or technical blogs. They allow you to use any kind of custom formatting or elements and then process the content for publishing. On top of that, they’re great for implementing a docs-as-code approach, where your documentation lives right beside your code (i.e. in a Git repo).

next-mdx-remote

We are going to be using next-mdx-remote for this tutorial. Let us install it -

So, i was reading the docs and Next/MDX looks exactly what i need for my blog. Well, not exactly because having hundreds of Markdown Pages doesn't look the best way to store the pages, and i was wondering if are any way to generate those pages from a DataBase full of Markdown pages. I read about next-MDX-remote but i was wondering if is there a native way to do that.

next-mdx-remote, a community package maintained by Hashicorp that allows you to use MDX from outside your project.

Do note that Code Hike also works with Next MDX Remote and MDX Bundler however, we are going to look at a simple example with the official MDX plugin for Next.js.

Refer the next-mdx-remote github to learn more the use of plugins and how awesome things could be done using MDX.

You could try storing mdx in wordpress somehow (I'm not a wordpress expert) and using next-mdx-remote to render that at runtime. MDX can contain both markdown and react components.

MDX is an extension on Markdown which, lets you import custom React components into your blog posts. To use MDX with Next.js you need to use a separate package. There are a few choices with MDX-remote being a popular one, but it has some drawbacks. For that reason, I chose to use mdx-bundler.

Sandpack is a live coding environment that runs on the browser. It is made by the team behind CodeSandbox/. The main objective here is to provide interactive examples to play around with, to users. I see it being widely used in things like blog posts and documentation (in fact the, work in progress, new React Docs is using Sandpack). In this article, we are going to look at how to add Sandpack to a React Application and then we will look at integrating it with Next MDX Remote in a NextJS Application.
