The PR description says this is in the static folder but it's with the course content. Did you figure out how this should work with CDNs?

Nevermind, I was looking at an older commit

I think that's outside the scope of this PR. Ultimately, this content will be edited in a browser through some kind of CMS, whether that ends up being Netlify or something else. Netlify has CDN integration through either Cloudinary or Uploadcare. It allows you to upload content and embed it in a page, generating the markdown for you with the CDN link. While Netlify CMS doesn't currently support Hugo Page Bundles in the way they're implemented here, their lead dev has commented that support could be added for this within a month:
For this PR, it's just solving the issue of "As a content author I would like to organize my course content in sections." Since there's another Issue for "As a content author I would like to use a GUI to write my course content and their respective resources," I figured here we would be just adding some sample content separated into course sections, as if you had done it without a GUI.

When I click on one of the solutions links I see a default mostly empty page. Is that what the 404 page would be?

There were some typos in the links, I fixed them. That is the 404 page though, which is currently blank. We should make an issue to fix that.

What's this PR do?
Adds an example content structure from the Spring 2010 Linear Algebra course, minus the Instructor Insights and Video Lectures sections. PDF's hosted along with the course on OCW are stored in the static folder for now and linked to with a relative URL. The appearance / origanization of the assignments section is slightly different in that it is not organized in a table like the OCW page. In markdown, representing multi line content in a table cell is messy.
How should this be manually tested?
Run the site and visit each section by typing the folder name at the end of the URL, for example: http://localhost:3000/exams
