MDX in VS Code: Writing Better Markdown with Components
March 1, 2026 at 12:30 PM • 1 min read
Cursor supports markdown out of the box and has partial built-in support for MDX. You can install the MDX extension from the VS Code Marketplace for better syntax highlighting and LSP.
LSP stands for Language Server Protocol. It is a standard that code editors like Cursor communicate with a language server and provides smart features like Autocomplete, Go to Definition, etc.
