Riso — two inks, one very charming document

Riso borrows the community print-shop look: pink headings, blue working text, dotted rules, and cream stock that makes both inks sing. Below is a complete sample rendered in it.

What does the Riso theme look like?

This is a complete sample report rendered in Riso — 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 Riso?

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

Who is the Riso theme for?

Zines, event programs, community updates, and side-project docs — writing that should feel hand-made and a little joyful.
