Session Goal

The primary objective of this session was to address and resolve various errors encountered during the build and static site generation processes using Docusaurus and MDX.

Key Activities

  • Fixing Docusaurus CLI Not Found Error: Reinstalled dependencies and ran a clean build to resolve the error.
  • Addressed Webpack Warning: Investigated non-serializable data structures in Webpack’s caching system, specifically VFileMessage objects, and outlined potential solutions.
  • Debugged MDX Compilation Errors: Identified and fixed common MDX compilation errors related to malformed frontmatter and illegal syntax.
  • Resolved MDX Runtime Exception: Fixed a runtime exception in MDX pages caused by an undefined variable ‘platform’ during static site generation.
  • Escaped Curly Braces in MDX: Implemented a method to prevent MDX parser from interpreting curly braces as JavaScript.

Achievements

  • Successfully resolved the Docusaurus CLI error and MDX runtime exceptions.
  • Improved understanding of Webpack caching issues and MDX syntax handling.

Pending Tasks

  • Further investigation into Webpack caching strategies may be needed.
