Build a Maintainable MDX Blog Workflow
Use frontmatter validation, generated tables of contents, reusable MDX components, and content review rules to scale a technical blog.
Validate frontmatter
Required fields should fail fast during build. Titles, descriptions, dates, tags, authors, and images are part of the publishing contract.
Generate navigation
Article pages can automatically build tables of contents from headings. This improves long-form readability without extra editor work.
Reuse components
MDX components for callouts, ads, code blocks, and comparison tables keep content expressive while preserving design consistency.
Review before publishing
Add editorial checks for claims, screenshots, dates, internal links, and accessibility.
