Use the rehype-raw as rehypeplugin in Docusaurus.

Add the following to the top of docusaurus.config.js file: and add the MDX plugin in next to the remark-local-plantuml plugin:

const localPlantUML = require("@mstroppel/remark-local-plantuml");
import rehypeRaw from 'rehype-raw';
const rehypeRawOptions = {
  passThrough: ['mdxjsEsm']
};

presets: [
    [
      "@Docusaurus/preset-classic",
      {
        docs: {
          sidebarPath: require.resolve("./sidebars.js"),
          remarkPlugins: [localPlantUML],
          rehypePlugins: [[rehypeRaw, rehypeRawOptions]],
        }
      }
    ]
  ],
