Hello! My blog uses Katex, so the titles need MDX support. Is there a way to render just the title/description of content seperately, at build time? I know https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/markdown-content/#fetching-remote-markdown says you can't do this when performing SSR, but it should be possible at build time?

I'm not familiar with Katex. But from the example at the link you shared, you could do the same:
---
// Example: Fetch Markdown from a remote API
// and render it to HTML, at runtime.
// Using "marked" (https://github.com/markedjs/marked)
import { marked } from 'marked';
const response = await fetch("from Katex");
const title = await response.text();
const title= marked.parse(title);
---
<h1 set:html={title} />
i'd like to reuse all my mdx stuff if possible. i basically just want inline mdx rendering on arbitrary strings at build time, surely that's possible, right?
I get why it wouldn't be possible for SSR (you'd need mdx infrastructure which is only accessible at build time), but it sounds like it should be 100% doable at build time
i'd rather not maintain two different katex plugins for the content of the post and the titles/descriptions
