How Velite s content orchestration and MDX s interactive authoring work together to create powerful Next.js blogs.
Velite and MDX solve different problems: Velite manages and validates content, while MDX enables rich, interactive content creation. Together, they provide both structure and flexibility.
A build-time content pipeline that brings structure, type-safety, and performance to your content.
An enhanced markdown format that allows React components directly in your content.
Understanding their distinct roles
Create .mdx files with frontmatter and React components
// blog/post.mdx
---
title: "My Post"
date: "2024-01-15"
---
# Welcome
<YouTubeVideo id="abc123" />Validates, optimizes, and generates TypeScript types
// velite.config.ts
const posts = defineCollection({
pattern: 'blog/**/*.mdx',
schema: s.object({
title: s.string(),
body: s.mdx() // ← Processes MDX!
})
})Use type-safe content with interactive MDX components
// app/blog/[slug]/page.tsx
export default async function Post({ params }) {
const post = await getPost(params.slug) // ← Type-safe!
return (
<article>
<h1>{post.title}</h1>
<MDXContent code={post.body} />
</article>
)
}Install Velite, create your config, write MDX content, and enjoy type-safe, interactive blogging.
