Overview
Remix MDX is an innovative approach to enhancing the built-in MDX support within the Remix framework. While the primary focus is on optimizing this feature outside of Remix, the goal is to create a standalone library that better serves the MDX community. This shift promises to streamline the development processes associated with MDX and make it easier for developers to manage their projects without runtime loading issues.
In this initiative, we’re not losing sight of simplicity. The library aims to integrate seamlessly into build processes, allowing users to deploy applications without the hassle of worrying about MDX at runtime. There’s a clear commitment to improving the user experience, and developers are encouraged to contribute to the project as it evolves.
Features
- Live Reload: Provides instant feedback during development, making it easy to see changes in real-time as you work on your MDX files.
- Flexible Routing: Supports both routes within the app/routes directory and routes outside of it, offering developers greater flexibility in their project structure.
- Customizable Compilation: Users can customize the MDX compilation process with plugins, giving developers the ability to tailor functionality to their specific needs.
- Path Importing: Facilitates importing relative, absolute, and ~-prefixed paths, simplifying the integration of project resources.
- Custom Components Support: Allows for easy integration of custom components in MDX by binding variables, making it possible to extend MDX capabilities effectively.
- Loader Export for Frontmatter: Plans to include a loader export that responds with frontmatter, enhancing the versatility of how data can be handled within MDX files.
