Leaf Computing

This website is built with the Eleventy site generator.

Generate a production-ready build to the _site folder:

npx @11ty/eleventy

Build and host on a local development server:

npx @11ty/eleventy --serve

To deploy, move the _site contents to the pages branch.

Implementation Notes

• content/about/index.md is an example of a content page.
• content/blog/ has the blog posts but really they can live in any directory. They need only the posts tag to be included in the blog posts collection.
• Use the eleventyNavigation key (via the Eleventy Navigation plugin) in your front matter to add a template to the top level site navigation. This is in use on content/index.njk and content/about/index.md.
• Content can be in any template format (blog posts needn’t exclusively be markdown, for example). Configure your project’s supported templates in eleventy.config.js -> templateFormats.
• The public folder in your input directory will be copied to the output folder (via addPassthroughCopy in the eleventy.config.js file). This means ./public/css/* will live at ./_site/css/* after your build completes.
• Provides two content feeds:
  • content/feed/feed.njk
  • content/feed/json.njk
• This project uses three Eleventy Layouts:
  • _includes/layouts/base.njk: the top level HTML structure
  • _includes/layouts/home.njk: the home page template (wrapped into base.njk)
  • _includes/layouts/post.njk: the blog post template (wrapped into base.njk)
• _includes/postslist.njk is a Nunjucks include and is a reusable component used to display a list of all the posts. content/index.njk has an example of how to use it.
