That would be pretty meta! "how to create how to interactive articles" :)

I'm super interested in this. I have a few interactive articles I'd like to make, but I'm not sure what tech to use for it to make it relatively quickly and without taxing the page too much.

Was thinking maybe the Phaser game framework, but that might be too heavy, especially if there needs to be 7 or 8 of them on the same page.

We build our interactive visuals with React and embed those into the mdx file for the blog post.

I made note for us to write a blog post about it. Stay tuned :)

Already learned something. Wasn't aware of mdx and it looks right up my alley, thanks for mentioning it. I look forward to your blog post!
