# Atris block-creator Author documents the Atris desktop editor renders as **live blocks**: charts, gauges, metric cards, tables, and images inside plain markdown. Same file is a one-pager or a deck — the only difference is slide breaks. The whole thing is one `.md` file. Prose is prose. A fenced code block with a known language becomes a live visual. A `---` on its own line starts a new slide. ## Where things live The renderer lives in the Atris desktop app (obelisk repo), at `project-obelisk/src/lib/markdownEditorIo.cjs` (engine) and `renderEmbedBlockHtml` in `project-obelisk/src/components/AppExperience.tsx` (block defs). Present mode: `MarkdownPresentView.tsx`. Working templates: `project-obelisk/atris/decks/` (`blocks-demo.md`, `generative-blocks.md`). Validate against the engine (below) — it's the source of truth, no app needed. ## Doc shape - **One-pager:** no `---`. Just headings, prose, and blocks. Scrolls. - **Deck:** `---` alone on a line between slides. Present mode splits on it; export makes a PDF. - A leading `---...---` frontmatter block is skipped by the slide splitter, so it's safe. ## The blocks Each is a fenced code block. The body must be **valid JSON** — invalid JSON silently falls back to a plain code block (no error), so validate. Colors/accents are hex strings. ### metric — a stat card ```metric {"label":"MRR from paying customers","value":"$20K+","accent":"#f0a13a"} ``` `label`, `value` (string), optional `accent`. Put several in a row; they
