## About This wraps the [remark-jargon](https://github.com/freesewing/freesewing/tree/develop/packages/remark-jargon) plugin for Gatsby so you can use _jargon_ in the markdown/mdx of your Gatsby site:  ## Install ```bash npm install --save gatsby-remark-jargon ``` ## Configuration In `gatsby-config.js` include your jargon file, and add the remark plugin: ```js { resolve: 'gatsby-remark-jargon', options: { jargon: require('./jargon.js') } } ``` ## Usage ### The jargon file The jagon file is a simple key-value file: ```js const jargon = { msf: "MSF Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders — An international, independent, medical humanitarian organisation. See msf.org" } export default jargon ``` ### Using jargon in markdown This plugin will only add markup to your jargon if you emphasize it. In the following example, only the first mention of MSF will be changed: ```md _MSF_ was founded in 1971 by 13 doctors and journalists. Today, MSF is a worldwide movement of more than 67,000 people. ``` This will be rendered as: ```html
MSF MSF Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders — An international, independent, medical humanitarian organisation. See msf.org was founded in 1971 by 13 doctors and journalists. Today, MSF is a worldwide movement of more than 67,000 people.
``` Which you can then style so that the definition is only show on hover/touch. ### Styling your jargon You will need to add CSS to style your jargon properly, and hide the definition by default. Below is an example to get you started: ```css // Add a dashed line under jargon terms .jargon-term { text-decoration: underline dotted #228be6 } // Add a question mark behind/above jargon terms .jargon-term::after { content: "?"; font-weight: bold; display: inline-block; transform: translate(0, -0.5em); font-size: 75%; color: #228be6; margin-left: 3px; } // Hover behavior for the therm itself .jargon-term:hover { position: relative; text-decoration: none; cursor: help; } // Hide info by default .jargon-term .jargon-info { display: none } // Show info on hover .jargon-term:hover .jargon-info { display: block; position: absolute; top: 1.5em; left: 0; background: #F8F8F8; border: 1px solid #DCDCDC; padding: 1rem; border-radius: 4px; font-size: 90%; min-width: 250px; max-width: 450px; z-index: 1; } ``` ## Tips for using jargon ### Lowercase your terms in the jargon file When looking for terms to match, we lowercase the term your emphazised. So in the jargon file, you should use `msf`, but in your text, you can use `MSF`, `Msf`, or `msf`. ### If you use HTML, only use inline elements Your jargon term definition can contain HTML, but only inline elements. Typically, you will want to stick to: - Making things **bold** - Inserting [links](#)
