Interactive Markdown
Markdown, but alive.
Sliders, animations, live charts — the document computes as you
touch it. No server, no account: one plain .md file
that runs entirely on your device, offline and private.
Free forever for reading & writing · Open AINP format · No install for readers
Then email it to a friend — that's the whole idea.
Why Rho MD
Your data is yours
Every Rho document is a plain file on your disk. It works offline, needs no account, and can't be locked away. You own it for the long term.
An open format
Rho speaks AINP — an open spec under CC BY 4.0. Anyone can read it, write it, or build their own reader. You're never trapped in one vendor.
Works everywhere
Desktop, mobile, or any browser renders the same document. Email it, commit it, archive it for ten years — it just opens, alive.
Three steps. No platform required.
Write plain Markdown
Add a Rho block — a slider, a chart, a stepper. Your document is still just text in a .md file you fully own.
It comes alive anywhere
Any Rho reader — desktop, mobile, or this browser — renders the block into a live, interactive widget. Nothing to install for readers on the web.
Send it like any file
Email it, drop it in chat, commit it to git. One portable file travels everywhere — and your reader gets the working app, not a screenshot.
Not a slideshow. Things you can actually poke.
Every panel below is a live Rho document — no video, no embed, no backend. Drag, switch tabs, step through. This is what your readers get.
