A note from Bob:

As I think I mentioned on social media, posts and sites have been pouring in (meaning I've searched high and low for these)...enough so that I felt it best to put out a mid-month bundle issue, making it a bit more digestible for everyone. I hope you enjoy it!

Highlights

Lessons learned. Lee Cattarin provides us with eleventy lessons, sharing lessons learned from building multiple websites with Eleventy, focusing on implementing features like related posts, featured images, pagination, and tag image previews.

Fantasy football. Silvestar Bistrović shows us How he built UltiGameMate with Eleventy and Supabase, a fantasy football web app, using Eleventy for static site generation and Supabase for authentication and database management.

Ignor-ance is bliss. Josh Sherman, describes how to Ignore Files with Eleventy. I have found this useful at times when I want to make a build go quite a bit faster than a full build.

IndieWeb all the way. Ricardo Mendes shows how to Deploy Your Own IndieWeb Site with Indiekit + Eleventy), enabling users to build independent blogs with Micropub support and social media syndication; and it uses Docker Compose (whatever that is).

Good meddling. Brennan Brown brings us Meddler, an amazing looking tool to export your Medium articles as markdown files, ready for importing them into Eleventy (or another SSG).

Until next time...
