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...

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. -
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.

#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

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.

Ever wanted to inject your own HTML into the markdown rendering of your 11ty posts? Me too! I wrote a post about it:

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: https://www.npmjs.com/package/eleventy-plugin-nesting-toc?activeTab=readme

When my blog was on Wordpress still, I was using the #activitypub plugin so that it was directly on Mastodon. After I left WP for #eleventy that was a hit I took. I looked for simple lightweight solutions I could use, hopefully something like a small PHP solution. At the time, there were none.
Today I see this:
https://github.com/dfaria-eu/Starling/
What I'm not exactly sure is if I drop this in the same directory as my #11ty blog will it automatically federate or can it be coerced to automatically federate? #BridgyFed works but is at best an imperfect kludge. I'd love to make ActivityPub a first class citizen of the blog. I guess I'll play around on a non-production system to see what it does.

I realized that when I use #Codium to write stuff for my #Eleventy website that I frequently would edit like a mad MF in order to avoid the auto-save triggering a build of my local dev instance. My site is big enough and has enough stuff that is a several minute build.
Earlier today I caught myself doing it and said to myself "You know, you can just increase the timeout value rather than altering your behavior to fit the tool." I set it to 15 seconds which is still plenty short in the world of editing and yet plenty long enough for me to move the cursor and continue editing without triggering a build.

I'm back working on my #digitalgarden template based on fromjason.xyz and powered by #11ty. 🎉🎉
I finished the design and now I'm working on the structure. I'm fixing all the quirks I didn't foresee in making fromjason, and I'm adding new functionality.
Idk what I'll do with it when I'm done. Selling the template sure is appealing only cause I could use the money lol. But, I also like the idea of contributing to the 11ty community and giving it away for free.
Anyway, I'm excited to share!

I think I have all the pieces set up and Umbrella is ready to go. It is a simple 11ty starter site that has IndieAuth, Micropub, and Webmentions built in using Netlify functions.
I've been using all of these pieces on my site for a bit but I wanted to put them all together in one place just in case it could help others start their own site.

Happy I Love Free Software Day! 💕
Unfortunately, this year I could not join nor organize any in-person celebration, BUT of course I want to share my gratitude to the many, countless #FreeSoftware services I don’t merely use, but actually depend on.
Last year, I decided to focus only on #YunoHost, because it would have been crazy to list all the projects I use and I love.
This time, even if I will most certainly forget someone, I am challenging myself to mention all the #LibreSoftware my life is powered by.
Without further ado, THANK YOU to:
- @yunohost, for powering Nebuchadnezzar
- @fedora, for running my beloved #Framework laptop
- @frameworkcomputer, for designing and building repairable, #Linux-friendly and truly open hardware
- @gnome and @GTK, for being just gorgeous
- @calyxos (thus @LineageOS), for powering my #Fairphone5
- #Obtainium, for making me directly download apps on my phone, and @fdroidorg for distributing them
- #AuroraStore, for proxying the download of apps I am doomed to get from Google Play
- @element, for developing #Synapse, even though the new proprietary Synapse Pro is VERY PROBLEMATIC AND DISAPPOINTING
- #Fractal, for being the most beautiful and awesome #Matrix client ever
- @signalapp, for keeping me connected with the people I love
- @Mastodon, for also maintaining a feature-packed experimental fork (#GlitchSoc), that is what Pan runs
- #Tuba and #Moshidon, for being the most beautiful and awesome #Mastodon clients ever
- #Firefox, for still remaining the best possible #browser choice, despite #Mozilla’s governance messiness
- @openstreetmap, for allowing us to find the right path, both literally and metaphorically!
- @organicmaps, for being the simplest, cleanest, yet feature-rich #OSM client and navigation app
- @protonvpn, for making me browse safely from/to anywhere in the planet and @protonprivacy #ProtonMail, for hosting my email, despite the latest alarming political statements…
- @libreoffice, for allowing me to draft documents with ease, the last of which was my #CV
- #LanguageTool, for preventing me from making embarassing spelling mistakes
- @photoprism, for safely storing and indexing all my photographic memories, on Aby, and for providing stellar and friendly support too!
- #Actual, for moderating the very likely risk of ending up completely broke, since it forces me to manage my finances consciously and coherently
- @readeck, for storing and sorting ALL my varied and overwhelming inputs
- @nextcloud, for storing and synchronizing my data, for its #calendar, its #tasks, and all its awesome apps
- #Rustdesk, for preventing my friends and family members from going crazy, by allowing me to remotely connect to their devices and directly address the issues they have
- #Listmonk, for sending out my newsletter
- @eleventy, for powering all the websites I maintain, above all the virtual representation of my mind, and for being the only reason why I resist and try to continue learning #JavaScript
- @forgejo, for giving us a chance to truly control and collectively develop the sources of our software, but most importantly @Codeberg, for RESISTING, RESISTING, RESISTING, despite the hatred and attacks nazi assholes throw at them
- @musicbrainz for keeping music knowledge open and free, and @ListenBrainz for scrobbling the crazy music I listen to
- The @fsfe, for promoting this celebration and fighting the good fight!
Lastly, but most importantly, the biggest thank you goes to all the free software libraries and dependencies the above mentioned #software are made of/built with, including #C, #JavaScript, #Python, #Rust, and all community-maintained programming languages.
I am super sorry if I forgot someone!

Looking to migrate an existing website to 11ty. It's predominantly blog content, and the blog posts themselves will be in Markdown. But I'm at a bit of a loss around which template language to use.
I'm very familiar with TSX, so maybe I should stick with that? Is there a reason to use something like Nunjucks instead?
-
I’m planning to create my first @eleventy site soon and I’m already wondering which template language to use. Given that #Eleventy supports several formats, there’s a minor #ParadoxOfChoice at play here. I’ll probably just go with #Nunjucks for its flexibility.
