From Brittle to Supple: How Gatsby and MDX Made Our Documentation Smoothly

Talkat React Summit 2020 · 2020-10-14..10-15· [react, web-platform]

Claims a concrete migration: migrated two repos into one using Gatsby and MDX, adding gatsby-plugin-mdx, gatsby-plugin-compile-es6-packages, remark autolink headers and a filesystem source to pull component MDX files. It builds component pages that render React examples inline, a props table generator, custom list and code-block components, and MDX with React Live editable code blocks so examples are interactive. The site improves accessibility and reduced CLI commands dramatically and fixes the brittle publish pipeline.
