Let's fix up our Markdown content.
1. Update the awesome-content.tsx
and add the following:
import { TinaMarkdown } from "tinacms/dist/rich-text";...<h1>{amazingTitle}</h1><TinaMarkdown content={incredibleBody} />
Test it. It works! Now try and edit your content again. Look, a rich-text editor!
2. Go ahead and add some styling to your body.
Why did we need to do this? When we ask TinaCMS for our Markdown content it gives us a parsed abstract syntax tree (AST). This looks like a big JavaScript object that contains our text / formatting / structure each in it's own node.
Tina can handle this for us usingTinaMarkdown
as above, or we can step through it ourselves for even more control. 🔧
TinaMarkdown
needs to be called in a client component since it needs access to React hooks.
