Issue 67 - We Meetup'd...And 4 releases, 23 posts and 10 sites to see

5 minutes to read

Welcome to Issue 67 of the 11ty Bundle. 11ty, aka Eleventy, is a "simpler 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 template languages, giving developers the freedom to choose the languages that best suit the needs of their project.

A note from Bob:

Family health matters are keeping my summary below rather short this issue. There's a lot in this issue, so scan on down below for the goodies.


We Meetup'd. The Eleventy Meetup was a success. Sia Karamalegos showed us how to use 11ty to build a data and chart analytics website. And I showed how I built my Books page. Those links go to the recording of Sia's talk and my blog post, respectively. You can see all of the meetup's recordings on the Eleventy Meetup YouTube channel.

Until next time...

The markdown filters your Eleventy project needs

Migrating from my old Jekyll site to Eleventy meant two things, I lost a lot of out-of-the-box helpers, but at the same time gained the flexibility to extend any part of my site build pipeline via JavaScript.
