A page component must export a React component for it to be valid

[jorabra]

When running md-deck build deck.mdx on a clean mdx-deck (v4.1.1) setup the process errors out with the following message:

> mdx-deck build deck.mdx

According to this issue in the DoczJS repo, the issue is with GatsbyJS. I added the latest version of Gatsby manually with npm i gatsby@2.23.3 which seemed to fix this problem.

I also ran into this problem, and tried the solution mentioned by @JulesBlm

In case anyone sees this and is stuck: I had to take it a step further in order to get it to build, using yarn resolutions:

• yarn add gatsby@2.23.4
• Add this to package.json ->

  {
  ...
  "resolutions": {
  "gatsby": "2.23.4"
  }
  }

• yarn install again
• Should build successfully
