MDX

With Nextra, all your .md and .mdx files under the pages directory will be rendered with MDX, it's an advanced Markdown format with React component support.

You can use import and use React components inside your Markdown files like this:

import Callout from 'nextra-theme-docs/callout'
**Markdown With React Components**
<Callout emoji="">
**MDX** (the library), at its core, transforms MDX (the syntax) to JSX.
It receives an MDX string and outputs a _JSX string_. It does this by parsing
the MDX document to a syntax tree and then generates a JSX document from that tree.
</Callout>

Syntax Highlighting

Automatic syntax highlighting:

```js
console.log('hello, world')
```

Renders:

console.log('hello, world')

You can also add the highlight=<line|range> modifier to highlight specific lines:

```jsx highlight=4,6-8
import useSWR from 'swr'
function Profile() {
const { data, error } = useSWR('/api/user', fetcher)
if (error) return <div>failed to load</div>
if (!data) return <div>loading...</div>
return <div>hello {data.name}!</div>
}
```
import useSWR from 'swr'
function Profile() {
const { data, error } = useSWR('/api/user', fetcher)
if (error) return <div>failed to load</div>
if (!data) return <div>loading...</div>
return <div>hello {data.name}!</div>
}

Inline Code

You can use `content` to wrap inline code content like: let x = 1.
