Markdown

Introduction

Fumadocs provides many useful extensions to MDX, a markup language. Here is a brief introduction to the default MDX syntax of Fumadocs UI.

Markdown

We use GFM (GitHub Flavored Markdown), a superset of Markdown (CommonMark). See GFM Specification.

# Heading
 
## Heading
 
### Heading
 
#### Heading
 
Hello World, **Bold**, _Italic_, ~~Hidden~~
 
```js
console.log('Hello World');
```
 
1. First
2. Second
3. Third
 
- Item 1
- Item 2

| Table | Description |
| ----- | ----------- |
| Hello | World       |

Auto Links

Internal links use the next/link component to allow prefetching and avoid hard-reload.

External links will get the default rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank" attributes for security.

[My Link](https://github.github.com/gfm)
 
This also works: https://github.github.com/gfm.

MDX

MDX is a superset of Markdown, with support of JSX syntax. It allows you to import components, and use them right in the document, or even export values.

import { Component } from './component';
 
<Component name="Hello" />

see MDX Syntax to learn more.

Cards

Useful for adding links, it is included by default.

Same as normal links, but you can display more information (e.g. icons).

<Cards>
  <Card
    href="https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/data-fetching/fetching-caching-and-revalidating"
    title="Fetching, Caching, and Revalidating"
    description="Learn more about caching in Next.js"
  />
</Cards>

Icon

You can specify an icon to cards.

import { HomeIcon } from 'lucide-react';
 
<Cards>
  <Card
    icon={<HomeIcon />}
    href="/"
    title="Home"
    description="Go back to home"
  />
</Cards>

Callouts

Useful for adding tips/warnings, it is included by default.

<Callout>Hello World</Callout>

Title

Specify a callout title.

<Callout title="Title">Hello World</Callout>

Types

You can specify the type of callout.

• info (default)
• warn
• error

<Callout title="Title" type="error">
  Hello World
</Callout>

Customisation

See all MDX components and available options.

Heading Anchors

An anchor is automatically applied to all headings, it sanitizes invalid characters like spaces. (e.g. Hello World to hello-world)

Custom Anchor

You can add [#slug] to customise heading anchors.

# heading [#my-heading-id]

To link people to a specific heading, add the heading id to hash fragment: /page#my-heading-id.

Frontmatter

We support YAML frontmatter. It is a way to specify common information of the document (e.g. title). Place it at the top of document.

---
title: Hello World
---
 
## Title

See Page Conventions for a list of properties available for frontmatter.

Codeblock

Syntax Highlighting is done with Rehype Code automatically.

```js
console.log('Hello World');
```

You can add a title to the codeblock.

```js title="My Title"
console.log('Hello World');
```

Highlight Lines

You spectify highlighted lines by adding [!code highlight].

```tsx
<div>Hello World</div>  // [!code highlight]
<div>Hello World</div>
<div>Goodbye</div>
<div>Hello World</div>
```

Highlight Words

You can highlight a specific word by adding [!code word:<match>].

```js
// [!code word:config]
const config = {
  reactStrictMode: true,
};
```

As Tab

You can use code block as a <Tab /> component.

import { Tab, Tabs } from 'fumadocs-ui/components/tabs';
 
<Tabs items={["Tab 1", "Tab 2"]}>
 
```ts tab="Tab 1"
console.log('A');
```
 
```ts tab="Tab 2"
console.log('B');
```
 
</Tabs>

console.log('A');

Using Typescript Twoslash

Write Typescript codeblocks with hover type information and detected types errors.

Not enabled by default. See Twoslash.

Images

All built-in content sources handle images properly. Images are automatically optimized for next/image.

![Image](/image.png)

Optional

Some optional plugins you can enable.

Math Equations

Write math equations with TeX.

```math
f(x) = x * e^{2 pi i \xi x}
```

To enable, see Math Integration.

Package Install

Generate code blocks for installing packages via package managers (JS/Node.js).

```package-install
npm i next -D
```

npm i next -D

To enable, see Remark Install.
