Remove solid-start-mdx package

[birkskyum]

I'm trying to clean up the MDX story, so it's more clear, and so solid devs can take full advantage of recent development with twoslash, shiki etc, and it came to my attention that solid-start-mdx has become obsolete.

solid-start-mdx is not used in the with-mdx example, or the new docs, where instead we use a combination of these three:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/solid-mdx http://www.npmjs.com/package/@vinxi/plugin-mdx https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mdx-js/mdx

And the solid-site repo uses:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/solid-mdx https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mdx-js/rollup

There have also been a few community efforts in this space:

https://www.npmjs.com/package/vite-plugin-solid-markdown https://www.npmjs.com/package/solidjs-mdx

Do we not use it in the docs? Oh.. hmm... I thought we did by the app.config.ts

import { defineConfig } from "@solidjs/start/config";
import { docsMdx } from "solid-start-mdx";
import tailwindcss from "tailwindcss";
import { config } from "vinxi/plugins/config";

export default defineConfig({
  appRoot: "./docs",
  extensions: ["mdx", "md"],
  experimental: { islands: true },
  server: {
    preset: "cloudflare_module",
    rollupConfig: {
      external: ["__STATIC_CONTENT_MANIFEST", "node:async_hooks"]
    },
    prerender: {
      crawlLinks: true
    }
  },
  vite: {
    optimizeDeps: {
      entries: []
    },
    plugins: [
      config("tailwind", {
        css: {
          postcss: {
            plugins: [tailwindcss]
          }
        }
      } as any),
      docsMdx()
    ]
  }
});

I'll look into that one - might have missed that

[birkskyum]

Okay, so it's used exclusively in, and tightly bound to, https://start.solidjs.com/ a bit longer.

[ryansolid]

Yep. That's the only reason exists. But it can go away soon with the new docs.

Seems like it now would be better for new users if the url in the start GitHub repo pointed to here where guides and api docs are updated:

https://docs.solidjs.com/solid-start
