Common Challenges & Debugging Solutions

Real issues students hit during development and how to troubleshoot them fast.

State Management

XSS via Raw Markdown

Issue: Rendering HTML from markdown can execute embedded scripts.

Fix Solution:Use react-markdown default sanitization or add rehype-sanitize, and never use dangerouslySetInnerHTML.

State Management

Importing Raw Markdown Files in Vite

Issue: Standard asset imports in Vite return URL paths instead of file content strings.

Fix Solution:Append the ?raw query suffix to the import statement (e.g. import post from "./post.md?raw") to instruct Vite to load it as a plain string.
