What problem does it solve?

Developing Docusaurus plugins can be complex, requiring understanding of client-side modules, lifecycle hooks, and SSR safety. This skill simplifies the process, providing guidance and patterns to quickly build robust plugins, allowing you to focus on functionality rather than boilerplate.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Automated DOM Enhancement: Learn to automatically modify or enhance website elements (e.g., image zoom, code copy buttons) without manual imports in content files.
• External Library Integration: Seamlessly integrate and reinitialize third-party JavaScript libraries across Docusaurus routes, ensuring consistent behavior.
• Plugin Lifecycle Mastery: Understand and utilize Docusaurus plugin hooks (getClientModules, onRouteUpdate) for efficient, SSR-safe development.
• Use Case: Quickly implement a feature like automatic image lightboxes or syntax highlighting for code blocks across your entire Docusaurus site with minimal effort, saving development time.

Quick Start

Explain how to implement a Docusaurus plugin that automatically adds a click handler to all images within markdown content, logging "Image clicked" to the browser console when any image is clicked.
