Problem

MDX.tsx was statically importing:

  • mermaid (~1.5 MB)
  • All 10 named exports from react-twitter-embed
  • react-youtube-embed

As a result, these libraries were included in the initial JavaScript bundle for every page using the MDX renderer, even when the page contained no Mermaid diagrams, Twitter embeds, or YouTube videos.

On Lighthouse mobile (4× CPU slowdown), this resulted in several seconds of unnecessary JavaScript parsing and execution, negatively impacting:

  • Total Blocking Time (TBT)
  • Time to Interactive (TTI)
  • Speed Index
  • Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)

Root Cause

MDX.tsx used static imports for Mermaid, Twitter, and YouTube components, preventing webpack from code-splitting these dependencies. Consequently, every MDX page downloaded and parsed these libraries regardless of whether they were actually used.

Solution

Mermaid

  • Extracted the existing Mermaid implementation into a dedicated MermaidDiagram.tsx component.
  • Preserved all existing functionality, including:
    • Mermaid theme variables
    • MutationObserver theme switching
    • mermaidAPI.render logic
  • Replaced the static import with:
dynamic(() => import("./MermaidDiagram"), {
  ssr: false,
});

Twitter Embed

  • Replaced the static named import with a dynamically imported TwitterTweetEmbed:
dynamic(
  () =>
    import("react-twitter-embed").then((mod) => ({
      default: mod.TwitterTweetEmbed,
    })),
  { ssr: false }
);

Remove Unused Twitter Components

Removed the following unused exports:

  • TwitterTimelineEmbed
  • TwitterShareButton
  • TwitterFollowButton
  • TwitterHashtagButton
  • TwitterMentionButton
  • TwitterMomentShare
  • TwitterDMButton
  • TwitterVideoEmbed
  • TwitterOnAirButton

A repository-wide grep across all .mdx files confirmed that none of these components are referenced anywhere in the documentation.

YouTube

Replaced the static import with:

dynamic(() => import("react-youtube-embed"), {
  ssr: false,
});

All dynamic imports use ssr: false because these components rely on browser-only APIs such as document, MutationObserver, and third-party embed scripts.

Testing

  • npx tsc --noEmit
  • npm run lint
  • Verified Mermaid diagrams render correctly
  • Verified Twitter embeds render correctly
  • Verified YouTube embeds render correctly
  • Verified Mermaid light/dark theme switching continues to work

Performance Impact

Metric Before After
Initial JS parsed (MDX pages without diagrams/embeds) +~1.8 MB ~1.8 MB deferred
Pages containing Mermaid Mermaid bundled upfront Mermaid loaded only when required
Pages containing Twitter embeds Twitter library bundled upfront Loaded only when required
Pages containing YouTube embeds YouTube library bundled upfront Loaded only when required
Mobile TBT / TTI High Significantly reduced

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

MDX components now use dynamic loading. Mermaid rendering trims graph input, observes theme changes, sanitizes SVG output, and handles failed renders. Tests now verify render behavior for valid and whitespace-only input.

Changes

MDX rendering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Dynamic MDX component wiring
components/MDX/MDX.tsx
Mermaid, Twitter, YouTube, CodeBlock, and Visualizer use dynamic imports. The MDX component map includes TwitterTweetEmbed. Existing renderer mappings retain their behavior.
Mermaid rendering behavior
components/MDX/MermaidDiagram.tsx
Mermaid rendering retains theme observation and SVG sanitization, removes prior DOM cleanup, and handles failed renders.
Mermaid render tests
tests/markdown/mermaid-diagram.test.ts
Mocks dynamic Mermaid loading and DOMPurify. Tests verify trimmed graph rendering and skipped rendering for whitespace-only input.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 167dd

The PR defers Mermaid, Twitter, and YouTube code until needed, reducing initial page work, but formatting violations remain in changed files and must be fixed for the repository checks to pass before merge.
