MDX

Definition

MDX is a format that lets you write JSX inside Markdown, so a document can mix prose with interactive components. This blog stores its posts and glossary terms as MDX files.

Also known as: .mdx

This is a placeholder term. It exists so that a fresh clone builds and you can see how glossary pages render. Delete it once you add your own.

How it differs from Markdown#

According to the MDX documentation, MDX adds JSX, ESM import and export, and expressions in braces on top of standard Markdown. Plain Markdown files are usually valid MDX, but some characters such as < and { need escaping.
