I’m using the fabulous 11ty static site generator for building my blog.
To get started, install all npm dependencies:
$ npm install
If you are tweaking things on the blog or are working on posts, you can run the 11ty server:
$ npx eleventy --serve
This starts a local server on http://localhost:8081 and watches the templates and posts for changes and reloads the browser if file updates were detected.
If you want to generate a static output of the website, run:
$ npm run eleventy
This generates the static website into the _site/ folder.
