Bamboo (简帛) is a beautifully restrained, fully offline reader built for one thing: making long-form writing readable again.
That tutorial you bookmarked. The newsletter you've been meaning to finish. The lecture notes shared in a group chat. The README that scrolls forever. Open them in the Files app and they show up as broken plain text or mangled code blocks. Bamboo turns them into ink on rice paper — measured line height, restrained type, IDE-grade code highlighting, generous white space.
WHO IT'S FOR
• Read-later collectors who actually want to read it later
• Bloggers and newsletter writers

REFINED TYPOGRAPHY

OPEN FROM ANYWHERE

ONE PIECE, MANY USES
