Note that this is by no means the only or most optomal project
structure, but it is a good enough starting point that evolved through
several, big and small project to start the next one from (at least
for me, subjectively).
Building
--------
To build all components:
```shell
$ make all
```
To build a specific component:
```shell
$ make block.pdf
```
`block.pdf` in this case.
<!-- XXX add basic introspection to Makefike??? -->
Structure
---------
### `setup.tex`
### `spreads.tex`
### `cover.tex` / `jacket.tex` / `endpaper.tex` / ..
### `web.tex`
<!-- XXX this is quite generic, can we generate it? -->
Workflow
