+### JSX Support
+
+Astro is unique in that it allows you to mix multiple types of JSX/TSX files in a single project. It does this by reading the `jsxImportSource` and `jsxTransformOptions` from renderers and transforming a file with [Babel](https://babeljs.io/).
+
+#### `jsxImportSource`
+This is the name of your library (for example `preact` or `react` or `solid-js`) which, if encountered in a file, will signal to Astro that this renderer should be used.
+
+Users may also manually define `/** @jsxImportSource preact */` in to ensure that the file is processed by this renderer (if, for example, the file has no imports).
+
+#### `jsxTransformOptions`
+This is an `async` function that returns information about how to transform matching JSX files with [Babel](https://babeljs.io/). It supports [`plugins`](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/plugins) or [`presets`](https://babeljs.io/docs/en/presets) to be passed directly to Babel.
+
+> Keep in mind that this transform doesn't need to handle TSX separately from JSX, Astro handles that for you!
+
+The arguments passed to `jsxTransformOptions` follow Snowpack's `load()` plugin hook. These allow you to pass separate Babel configurations for various conditions, like if your files should be compiled differently in SSR mode.
+
+```ts
+export interface JSXTransformOptions {
+ (context: {
+ /** True if builder is in dev mode (`astro dev`) */
+ isDev: boolean;
+ /** True if HMR is enabled (add any HMR code to the output here). */
+ isHmrEnabled: boolean;
+ /** True if builder is in SSR mode */
+ isSSR: boolean;
+ /** True if file being transformed is inside of a package. */
+ isPackage: boolean;
+ }) => {
+ plugins?: any[];
+ presets?: any[];
+ }
+}
+```

### Server Entrypoint (`server.js`)
The server entrypoint of a renderer is responsible for checking if a component should use this renderer, and if so, how that component should be rendered to a string of static HTML.
