From the README
Kami Good content deserves good paper.
Why
Kami (紙, かみ) is the Japanese word for paper: the quiet surface on which a finished idea finally lands. Most document design drifts into two failure modes: generic corporate gray, or SaaS hype gradients. Neither reads like something a person actually made with care.
Kami holds one design idea across every format: warm parchment canvas, a single ink-blue accent, serif for authority, sans for utility, editorial whitespace tuned for print.
Part of a trilogy: Kaku (書く) writes code, Waza (技) drills habits, Kami (紙) ships documents. Think of them as a family: Kaku is the dad, Waza the big sister, Kami the little sister.

Design
Warm parchment canvas, ink blue as the sole accent, serif carries authority, no hard shadows or flashy palettes. This is not a UI framework; it is an aesthetic constraint system for printed matter. Quality documents read like literature, not dashboards.
Six document types (One-Pager, Long Doc, Letter, Portfolio, Resume, Slides), each with Chinese and English variants. Three inline SVG diagram types (architecture, flowchart, quadrant) are included. Kami picks the right variant based on the language you write in.
| Element | Rule |
|---|---|
| Canvas | #f5f4ed parchment, never pure white |
| Accent | Ink blue #1B365D only, no second chromatic hue |
| Neutrals | All warm-toned (yellow-brown undertone), no cool blue-grays |
| Serif | Weight locked at 500, never bold. Single weight is the signatu
