Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #11ty, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Testing a thing to find things like this in feeds #11ty

  2. I've been making some improvements to the #11ty photo website project. I've added a few more photos, to fill it out a bit. I've used BlurHash for photo loading. And I've added pagination, which is then transformed into infinite loading.

  3. What alternatives to Google Workspace, Office 365 do y'all use that are lowcost w/ good spam filters and no AI? I'm looking for sub $10 a/mo #webdev #11ty

  4. So, I've made a little bit of progress on transitioning me-dot-com to Eleventy... Though now I'm wondering if it's what I really want to do. I'm leaning toward "no".

    My homepage is just a glorified "/now" page that pulls data from various APIs. So it's constantly updating.

    The thing about static site generators like 11ty... They're static. I guess I could jam some JavaScript in there and update stuff client-side. But the current Glance widgets really seem to serve my purpose.

    Oh well. It was fun to fart around with 11ty, at least...

  9. Thanks. I've honed how I organise my 11ty projects every time I've built a new one. I've written down some of how I've implemented and organised things with #11ty, and you can see how the idea has progressed.

  10. @trovster I don’t have any useful feedback beyond saying this is great! It’s neat to see an example of how to parse EXIF data. It’s something I’ve been interested in doing for my own long overdue photos section. Are you planning to move your whole site to #11ty, or is it just for the kicks?

  11. I've created a first pass at an #11ty version of my simple photos website. It includes the EXIF and palette that I have on my primary version.

    There is still lots of potential and features to add. I would love it if someone would give it a go and provide some feedback.

  12. The bridge between play & interrogation of shared goals is beautifully illustrated by @philhawksworth as well as a call to embrace abstractions - whether AI or SCSS (seriously!) - in an *opinionated* manner.

    ♥️ Much needed attitude imho (👍 also #11ty count++ / slop count++) #AllDayHey

  13. These classic stickers are still available...for free. I have removed the "shop" from my site nav, but you can still get there via this post. I have about 40 of these left. They are destined to become classics. Get one while they last.

  14. Of course both are built on #11ty - and I now have a scaffold to build out 11ty sites using 1 prompt in CC inside VSCode - took a bit of tweaking to get it to build it how I wanted - installs the latest 11ty build and the dependencies I usually use as well as templates and placeholder files and, probably most importantly a claud.md file with instructions on how to proceed.

  15. I read kinda everywhere that #Hugo is best for documentation when #11ty would be best for blogs. But to be honest I can't understand the reason for that claim.
    Hugo is opinioniated af and I hate that, so I'm considering switching a Hugo doc project to 11ty. Would it be that bad of an idea?
    Sure Hugo is fast but everything seems so damn complicated to do in the templates.

  16. @trovster Love the colour palette feature! Seems a great way to build a source of inspiration from your own photos. Did you use the #11ty image-color utility? I’ve been meaning to give that a go again. First time I tried, struggled to get it working and bailed out 🫠

  17. RE: neighborhood.11ty.dev/@11ty/11

    Backed it (again!). Will I finally upgrade from v1 of #11ty before the campaign ends?? Stay tuned.

  18. Now I have the crazy idea in my head that maybe I should figure out Eleventy a little better and get that to do all of the fancy JSON-finagling current happening on my public-facing homepage...

    I have a ways to go, since this is my current local 11ty site.

  19. #11ty is an awesome open source static site generator I use and support for a while now.

    The project recently got part of the #fontawesome universe. I understand @zachleat ’s goal of the transition was to keep the project sustianable and alive for many years ahead.

    I supported Build Awesome on the kickstarter campaign and you can be aweome too

  21. The Build Awesome Kickstarter is back up, already hit its goal in less than a day.

    I backed it, because I do want to see Leatherman and OSS projects as a whole succeed monetarily and be sustainable. I hope there is an audience for Build Awesome Pro despite my doubts.

    That said, seeing one of the main features of Build Awesome be that "Cursor can refactor it, Claude can rewrite it, and your own scripts can manipulate it (safely)." and that "Build Awesome was designed for a world where your agentic assistant is a full contributor" is certainly frustrating and disappointing.

  22. Anyone know of a guide on how to migrate a Build Awesome (11ty) site to Forgejo from GitHub? I somehow got stuck on the SSH auth setup last I tried 😭 I may just need to try again with fresh eyes.

    I've been deploying to Neocities with GitHub Actions thanks to @sophie's great guide. I'm sure Forgejo actions will also be a sticking point so any tips here would be awesome. localghost.dev/blog/how-i-depl

  23. Anyone know how to use commonjs plugins with an ESM config in #eleventy / #11ty? I am using import for everything, but there's one plugin that I'd like to use that is still using commonjs. Specifically: npmjs.com/package/eleventy-plu

  24. I was impressed with flockblocker.org/birdstrike and tinkered with making a static website template for a group that is following that approach to combating #flock in their community.

    It uses #11ty and #tailwindcss but I don't have a lot of experience with either of those things.

    If you'd like to help make it better let me know!
