```elixir
Mix.install(
[
{:mdex, ">= 0.13.3"},
{:lumis, ">= 0.6.1"},
{:phoenix_playground, "~> 0.1"},
{:req_embed, "~> 0.3"}

```
## Intro
MDEx integrates with Phoenix LiveView, allowing you to write Markdown that includes Phoenix components, `phx-*` bindings, and Elixir expressions. Use the `~MD[...]HEEX` sigil modifier to compile Markdown templates with full HEEx support. See the [HEEx Integration guide](https://hexdocs.pm/mdex/heex.html) for more details.
## Example
````elixir
defmodule MarkdownLive do
use Phoenix.LiveView
use MDEx,
syntax_highlight: [
engine: :lumis,
opts: [formatter: {:html_inline, theme: "github_light"}]
]
def mount(_params, _session, socket) do
{:ok, assign(socket, message: "Have a nice day", count: 0)}
end
def render(assigns) do
~H"""
<script src="https://cdn.tailwindcss.com?plugins=typography"></script>
<main class="prose prose-zinc max-w-3xl mx-auto px-6 py-10">
{markdown(assigns)}
</main>
"""
end
defp markdown(assigns) do

```elixir
%{}
{:ok, %{name: "MDEx"}}
fn = fn -> :ok end
```
