How This Presentation Was Made
summary
Builds a complete Beamer PDF from source by wiring together Haskell Shake rules, snippet extraction with marker comments, automatic formatting and compiler/linter checks (hindent, GHC), and image generation or download via ImageMagick. Dependencies come from a Nix single-command build so environments are reproducible and Travis-friendly. The system runs builds in parallel, performs only minimal rebuilds after changes, and emits a final slides.pdf; examples show automated snippet extraction, regenerated images, and successful incremental builds.
