๐Ÿš€ Contribute to MDX Editor โ€” An Open-Source, AI-Powered Markdown + JSX Experience

Hey everyone! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Iโ€™m super excited to introduce MDX Editor โ€” a modern, open-source editor for creating and managing MDX (Markdown + JSX) documents with ease.

This project started as a way to simplify writing, editing, and collaborating on MDX content, and it has quickly evolved into a powerful editor with AI-assisted text manipulation, real-time saving, and a clean, responsive UI.

Now, Iโ€™m opening it up to the community to help shape its future. If youโ€™re passionate about open-source, React, Next.js, or MDX โ€” this is your chance to contribute to something impactful. ๐Ÿ’œ


โœจ What Is MDX Editor?

MDX Editor is a web-based editor built with Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS that allows you to:

  • Write and edit MDX (Markdown + JSX) documents with real-time preview.
  • Manage your files and folders like a repository system.
  • Collaborate and save changes in real time.
  • Use AI-powered tools to improve your content (coming soon).
  • Securely authenticate and manage private/public repositories.

Itโ€™s essentially like your favorite code editor, but optimized for content creators and developers working with MDX.


๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Tech Stack

  • Next.js + React
  • Tailwind CSS for styling
  • Prisma + PostgreSQL for database
  • NextAuth for authentication
  • Monaco Editor for a VS Codeโ€“like editing experience

๐Ÿšง How You Can Contribute

There are many ways you can jump in and help:

  • ๐Ÿ› Fix bugs or improve performance.
  • ๐ŸŽจ Enhance the UI/UX with better design ideas.
  • ๐Ÿ“ Improve documentation or write tutorials.
  • ๐Ÿ”Œ Add new features (like themes, AI plugins, or export options).
  • ๐Ÿงช Write tests to increase coverage and stability.

๐ŸŒŸ Final Thoughts

Open source thrives because of passionate contributors like you. Whether youโ€™re fixing a typo, designing a new feature, or helping with documentation, every contribution makes MDX Editor better. ๐Ÿ’ก
