This LaTeX package helps you show TeX code next to their PDF snapshots,

in two-column formatting. You can use it either in `.dtx` documentation

or in `.tex` file.

First,

[install it](https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Installing_Extra_Packages)

from [CTAN](https://ctan.org/pkg/docshots)

and then use like this:

```tex

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{docshots}

\begin{document}

Here is how you can use \LaTeX:

\begin{docshot}

\documentclass{article}

\pagestyle{empty}

\begin{document}

  Hello, \LaTeX!

\end{document}

\end{docshot}

For more informaiton, read \TeX{} Book by Donald Knuth.

\end{document}

```

Otherwise, you can download [`docshots.sty`][sty] and add to your project.

If you want to contribute yourself, make a fork, then create a branch,

then run `l3build ctan` in the root directory.

It should compile everything without errors. If not, submit an issue and wait.

Otherwise, make your changes and then run `l3build ctan` again. If the build is

still clean, submit a pull request.
