Getting Started with Next.js MDX Blog
Welcome to your new blog built with Next.js and MDX! This is a sample post to demonstrate the MDX capabilities of your blog platform.
Why MDX?
MDX allows you to use React components within your Markdown content. This means you can have:
- Regular Markdown content
- Interactive React components
- JSX elements mixed with your text

title: The title of your postdate: Publication date in YYYY-MM-DD formattags: An array of tags for categorizationdescription: A brief description of the post contentdraft: Whether the post is a draft (won't appear in production if true)
Example Component
Here's an example React component embedded in your MDX content:

That's it! Your MDX blog is ready to go.
