Leverage the power of Eleventy to quickly produce static sites that are
efficient and fast. This project-oriented book simplifies the process of
setting up Eleventy and manipulating content, using little more than a
text editor or free software.
It will equip you with a starting tool set that you can use to develop
future projects or incorporate into your existing workflow. More
importantly, you'll take websites to the next level, reducing the
reliance on tools that are bloated, prone to being hacked and not the
most efficient. Beginning Eleventy is an excellent resource for
getting acquainted with creating and manipulating blogs using a static
site generator approach. It takes the view that you don't have to create
something complex and unwieldy; you can build something quickly, then
extend it using the power of the API and plugins over time, without
sacrificing speed or features.
What You'll Learn:
- Implement the Eleventy framework in a project
- Explore some of the options for customizing content using the
framework
- Gain an appreciation of pointers around maintenance requirements, and
how this might compare to other blog systems
- Work through some example projects, to help build up a working blog
from standalone demos to implementing with other tools or libraries
