Airy — whitespace doing the heavy lifting

Airy gives your markdown room: an unhurried line height, tracked-out section labels, and margins most themes would call wasteful. Below is a complete sample rendered in it.

What does the Airy theme look like?

This is a complete sample report rendered in Airy — the exact output the editor downloads, embedded here unmodified.

Quarterly Growth Report

Written by an LLM in seconds — styled by markdown.style.

This is the markdown an AI assistant hands you: solid structure, zero design. The theme you are looking at is doing all of the visual work.

Highlights

Region Revenue Growth
EMEA 4.2M +14%
APAC 3.1M +22%
AMER 6.8M +9%

What drove the quarter

Net growth is computed per region as rate * (1 - churnShare) and rolled up weekly. The pipeline behind it:

export function netGrowth(rates: number[], churn: number[]): number {
  return rates.reduce((sum, r, i) => sum + r * (1 - (churn[i] ?? 0)), 0)
}

Numbers exclude the acquisition closed after the quarter cutoff.[1]


Full methodology lives in the reporting handbook.

What does every element look like in Airy?

The same markdown building blocks, one by one: headings, tables, code, quotes, lists, and footnotes, exactly as Airy styles them.

Component specimens

Section headings

A third-level heading

Every inline element gets exercised here: bold text, italic text, a reference link, struck text, and inline code.

Table

Component Kind Notes
Heading Structure h1 through h3
Table Structure GFM pipe syntax
Code Structure fenced block
List Structure ordered and plain

Code block

export function sum(nums: number[]): number {
  return nums.reduce((total, n) => total + n, 0)
}

Blockquote

A quoted aside, set apart from the body copy.

Who is the Airy theme for?

Manifestos, letters, and short strategy notes — writing that gains authority from calm. Not the theme for a 40-page appendix.

Which themes pair well with it?

  • Mist — Design documents, product notes, and portfolios of thought
  • Swiss — Strategy memos, design documents, and briefs for readers who notice typography. When in doubt between “more” and “less”, Swiss is the “less”.
