The source data was a bit crazy but I think we figured out how to turn the data into something useful.

Idea with this is to turn a json feed into some hackish html/xml stuff to be imported into Adbove InDesign. From there footer/header and extra pages get added and then it's turned into a fancy PDF doc and sent to the printer.

Each of the pages is a section of the pdf. It takes a second or two to render because its tons of data.

Running

It takes a minute after npm start to fetch and process the data from the source. When you see return new data in the terminal console you're good to open the app. http://localhost:3000/

npm i
npm start
