Introduction

Markdown and Mdx parsing is supported via unified, and other remark and rehype packages. next-mdx-remote allows us to parse .mdx and .md files in a more flexible manner without touching webpack.

GitHub flavored markdown is used. mdx-prism provides syntax highlighting capabilities for code blocks. Here's a demo of how everything looks.

The following markdown cheatsheet is adapted from: https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/

What is Markdown?

Markdown is a way to style text on the web. You control the display of the document; formatting words as bold or italic, adding images, and creating lists are just a few of the things we can do with Markdown. Mostly, Markdown is just regular text with a few non-alphabetic characters thrown in, like # or *.
