Mdx: 📸 Built with MDX showcase

Created on 27 Feb 2019  ·  21Comments  ·  Source: mdx-js/mdx

It'd be great to add a showcase page to the docs website that lists (with screenshots) MDX usage in the wild. This issue will track.

Have you built an MDX-based site or know of one? Please add a comment with the link below 💟

✨ Bonus points for the site being open source!

The official website and documentation of Nord makes heavy use of MDX for all documentations and blog posts through the awesome Gatsby.js project.

I've used MDX in many other projects before and I don't want to miss it anymore :smile:

The main introduction for the Nord Docs project was in development version 0.10.0 including the layout and templates for docs and blog post pages and was filled with content in version 0.11.0.

Yes! One emoji reaction doesn’t do this justice!

Just to list a few:

nextjs.org/docs - github.com/zeit/next-site
nextjs.org/blog - github.com/zeit/next-site
zeit.co/docs - github.com/zeit/docs
zeit.co/blog - not OSS

🙌

Built thumbprint.design with gatsby-mdx. Source can be found at: https://github.com/thumbtack/thumbprint

‪Yup! https://joelhooks.com and https://howtoegghead.com
❤️

Both of these are open source.

Sprout Social’s design system, Seeds, is built using gatsby-mdx:

Not open source (yet!)

Personal portfolio and blog - https://aravindballa.com
It uses gatsby-mdx

We’d be happy for Primer docs websites to be included, and pretty much all our stuff is open-source, such as https://primer.style/components

@emplums on my team can give you more details and examples if you’re interested :)

👋 Hey there!

It's true! Here's a list of all the sites we're currently using MDX on:

Just wrapped up porting my portfolio from rehype-react to gatsby-mdx: https://prestonrichey.com/!

Building out the React Native Firebase documentation with gatsby-mdx. It's still work in progress but up and running;

https://dev.invertase.io/oss/react-native-firebase/

personal blog https://iamstarkov.com
It uses next, @next/mdx and mdx itself.

microfrontends

https://nut.js.org/

the document website for NUT Project, which is a framework born for microfrontends

the website was generated by nut, and nut itself uses mdx internally to provide some features like vue in markdown files

the website source code:

https://github.com/nut-project/nut/tree/master/website

It's nothing special but I just added MDX to my two GatsbyJS websites: https://inspiredwebdev.com/ and http://elingos.com/

I love being able to implement components in my Markdown. Awesome project. I had to write something about it to spread the word (https://dev.to/albertomontalesi/what-is-mdx-and-how-you-can-use-it-on-your-gatsby-blog-2gf8)

Visual book about RegEx — Source

Screenshot of the Escapes chapter

It uses mdx for the example blocks.

Initially I was making each of the visuals in Sketch, exporting them to images and using them in markdown. It then struck me to use mdx which made my life so much easier. Relevant commit.

I now mix jsx components for the visuals in with the rest of the commentary:

…

Here, this could also be achieved by using `[^"]` instead of `.` (as is best practice).

<Example regex={/"[^"]*"/g}>
    <li>"quote"</li>
    <li>"quote", "quote"</li>
    <li>"quote"quote"</li>
</Example>

… and it gets transformed to:

Markdown is a great choice for books and writing in general. My use-case required relatively advanced dynamically generated figures. MDX allowed me to implement that without having to deal with hundreds of Sketch files and exported images, enhancing permitting maintainability, accessibility, and "contributability".

Huge thanks to the MDX team. You're working on a great thing.

Heard about this on the Twitters today: https://gatsbythemeshopifymanager.com

Hi, thanks for the work and looking forward to v2.

I am building a documentation system using mdx:
