Issue 3

4 minutes to read

Welcome to Issue 3 of the 11ty Bundle. 11ty, aka Eleventy, is a static site generator that is designed to be simple, flexible, and highly customizable. It is built on Node.js and allows developers to create websites by transforming templates and data into static HTML files. It supports multiple templating languages, including HTML, Markdown, Nunjucks, Liquid, and more, which gives developers the freedom to choose the languages they are most comfortable with or that best suit their project's needs.

UPDATED: 2023-04-18 - I have added descriptions to each of the blog post entries. These are extracted from the blog post page itself as provided by the post's author.

Since there are so many different topics covered the blog posts, I may start creating bundles that are focused on a particular topic; either that, or organize the list of posts by topic. And maybe, just maybe, I'll move all of this to a dedicated site (yes, I've already purchased a domain).
