Does this approach support theme-aware styling for custom MDX components?

Yes, this approach supports theme-aware styling for custom MDX components. The integration defines specific requirements for client-side components, ensuring that your interactive elements adapt visually to the active theme of your Next.js application.

How do I start creating an interactive blog post with custom components?
