MDX and React Components

MDX can make your documentation more interactive and allows using any React components inside Markdown:

export const Highlight = ({children, color}) => (
<span
style={{
backgroundColor: color,
borderRadius: '20px',
color: '#fff',
padding: '10px',
cursor: 'pointer',
}}
onClick={() => {
alert(`You clicked the color ${color} with label ${children}`)
}}>
{children}
</span>
);

This is <Highlight color="#fd0000">StackUp Orange</Highlight> !

This is <Highlight color="#1877F2">Facebook blue</Highlight> !

This is StackUp Orange !

This is Facebook blue !
