Hi @remote zenith. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

Hello,

Astro's Markdown and MDX renderer, which is built on remark and rehype, allows you to add support for custom syntax and behavior by adding remarkPlugins or rehypePlugins in your Astro config file. However, the specific implementation of creating custom blocks like :::do and :::dont is not directly mentioned in the provided sources.

You might want to look into the documentation of remark and rehype plugins to see if they provide the functionality you need. You can also check out the Astro docs on Markdown Plugins (https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/markdown-content/#markdown-plugins) for more information.

Here's an example of how to add plugins to your Astro config file:

import { defineConfig } from 'astro/config';
import remarkToc from 'remark-toc';
import { rehypeAccessibleEmojis } from 'rehype-accessible-emojis';

export default defineConfig({
  markdown: {
    remarkPlugins: [ [remarkToc, { heading: 'toc', maxDepth: 3 } ] ],
    rehypePlugins: [rehypeAccessibleEmojis],
  },
});

Please note that this is just an example and the actual plugins you need to use might be different.

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:
