Using Web Workers with Vite

Modern portfolio posts should do more than render static text. This article demonstrates the exact feature set the new blog now supports: MDX components, Mermaid diagrams, code tabs, and an isolated live preview panel.

Setup shape

Minimal worker entry

<button id="start">Run worker</button>
<pre id="output"></pre>

Live preview

Live Preview
