+## Parameterized markdown snippets
+
+Reusable Markdown snippets support arbitrary parameters that can be used as variables in the snippet. This enables flexible, reusable content templates.
+
+Create a snippet with parameter placeholders using curly braces:
+
+```mdx fern/snippets/watering-schedule.mdx
+<Warning>Remember to water your {plant} every {interval} days.</Warning>
+```
+
+Pass parameters when including the snippet:
+
+```mdx page.mdx
+<Markdown src="/snippets/watering-schedule.mdx" plant="peace lily" interval="3" />
+```
+
+This renders as:
+
+<Markdown src="/snippets/watering-schedule.mdx" plant="peace lily" interval="3" />
