Sampler PDF stash

The PDF in this directory is the print-friendly mirror of the Critical Digital Studies sampler. It is built from _data/cds.yml so the file stays honest when the page changes. Keeping the binary checked in lets future students audit the receipts—no phantom pedagogy.

Regenerate the PDF (a tiny ritual)

1. Install the one-off dependencies (they’re light):

   pip install reportlab cairosvg pillow pyyaml
   

2. From the repo root, run the generator:

   python tools/build_sampler_pdf.py
   

3. Sanity check the hidden page while you’re here:

   python tools/lint_sampler.py
   

The generator pulls each card, drops in its hero image, and spits out a 7-page PDF with Outcomes and Teach-with-this blocks intact. If anything explodes, fix the data instead of the PDF by hand. Future you will thank present you with snacks.
