  • jpreagan.com

    Discontinued 💿 My personal website built with Remix

    Here I'm using remarkGfm to provide GitHub Flavored Markdown, and rehype-prism-plus to give syntax highlighting for code blocks. You'll need to import a prism theme in /pages/_app.tsx or add your own custom tokens to global styles. I went with the latter option and you can take a look at how I did that here.

  • remark-mdx-images

    Discontinued A remark plugin for changing image sources to JavaScript imports using MDX

    You might also want to embed images in your MDX. Proprietary solutions like Cloudinary are great services, but can get a bit pricey too. Something you might want to look at is image bundling with remark-mdx-images, which you can use with mdx-bundler.

  • tailwindcss-typography

    Beautiful typographic defaults for HTML you don't control.

    Also, note I've made use of some styling here; just a minimal example of how you can use Tailwind CSS and the official Tailwind Typography plugin. It's really fantastic for this sort of use case. If you're curious more about the styling have a look at the GitHub repo.
