MDX components

Insert the components a developer declares — from a small form, not raw JSX — and they render in your MDX pages.

Insert a component in the editor — it renders on the page.

MDX components in Orbit MD

In .mdx pages, editors can insert the components you declare — callouts, figures, whatever you build — from a small form: pick the component, fill in its options, done. No raw JSX to get wrong. In Orbit’s preview they show as clear cards; your site — Astro, Gatsby or Next.js, with its MDX package — renders the real component when it builds.

Orbit tags .mdx files in the sidebar and only offers the insert button on them, so editors can see at a glance which pages accept components.
