linkedinBuild log. This week we shipped a brand book that builds itself. Every page is generated from one config file.
The old way was hand-editing a PDF every time a rule changed. It broke on drift once: we updated a brand color, but one page still showed the old one. Generating from a single source killed that.
Now the brand book is always accurate. Next, we add live motion demos right in the page.
