For example, this blockquote: + +```md +> A blockquote with *some* emphasis. +``` + +will be converted into this HTML: + +```html +<blockquote> + <p>A blockquote with <em>some</em> emphasis.</p> +</blockquote> +``` + +But what if you want to specify your own markup for these blockquotes? In the above example, you could create a custom `<Blockquote />` component (in any language) that either has a `<slot />` component or accepts a `children` prop. + +```astro title="src/components/Blockquote.astro" +<blockquote class="bg-blue-50 p-4"> + <span class="text-4xl text-blue-600 mb-2">“</span> + <slot /> +</blockquote> +``` + +Then in the MDX file you import the component and export it to the `components` export. + +```mdx title="src/pages/posts/post-1.mdx" {2} +import Blockquote from '../components/Blockquote.astro'; +export const components = { blockquote: Blockquote }; +``` + +Now, writing the standard Markdown blockquote syntax (`>`) will use your custom `<Blockquote />` component instead. No need to use a component in Markdown, or write a remark/rehype plugin! Visit the [MDX website](https://mdxjs.com/table-of-components/) for a full list of HTML elements that can be overwritten as custom components. + + +#### Custom components with imported `mdx` + +When rendering imported MDX content, custom components can also be passed via the `components` prop: + +```astro title="src/pages/page.astro" "components={{ h1: Heading }}" +--- +import Content from '../content.mdx'; +import Heading from '../Heading.astro'; +--- + +<Content components={{ h1: Heading }} /> +``` + ### Syntax highlighting The MDX integration respects [your project's `markdown.syntaxHighlight` configuration](https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/markdown-content/#syntax-highlighting). |
