YouTube Component Test

This is a test post to showcase the YouTube component working in Astro MDX.

First Video Example

Here’s a relaxing nature video:

Why This Matters

Being able to embed videos directly in blog posts makes content more engaging and interactive. The component is:

  • Fully responsive (works on all screen sizes)
  • Privacy-focused (uses youtube-nocookie.com)
  • Clean and minimal design
  • Easy to use - just drop in the video ID

How to Use

Simply add this to any MDX file:

<YouTube videoId="YOUR_VIDEO_ID" />

That’s it! The component handles all the styling and responsiveness automatically.
