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.
