I'll save the nitty-gritty, inner-workings of my blog and how I emulate Eleventy's high performance blog example for later. For now, we just want to connect the dots...let's see what we have and what we still need to do:

Lastly, we'll look at a template created by Google that uses 11ty to make a blog. If you'd like to check out the template yourself, this is their Github.

One last example uses a template based off the original one, found here. Again, I used the template, cloned, and added my posts. Here is my GitHub repo and my sample site.

google/eleventy-high-performance-blog – A high-performance blog template for the 11ty static site generator.

google / eleventy-high-performance-blog

11ty is a lightweight static site generator. I chopped up my HTML and used the 11ty starter template called eleventy-base-blog as the structural foundation for the site.

Sure! It's on github at https://github.com/nosecreek/dustin-lammiman - I started with https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-base-blog for the basic templating logic.

To generate a static blog, we will be using Eleventy. Using the blog example from Eleventy as a base for our blog. Clone the repository:

I would do this with Eleventy which is a powerful static site generator with support for html partials (partial is what I call your toolbar here). You would use the template language nunjucks which Eleventy comes with support for, or you can choose plain html too if you don't want the Nunjucks capabilities for logic like if/else, for loops, javascript injection of dynamic values in your html at site generation time, etc. This repo shows most of the techniques you could need and use: https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-base-blog

For the second site I made using 11ty, I used this repo which is a more advanced 11ty template that can be customized. After following the instructions in the README.md file and edited all the markdown I came up with this:

Pre-established Eleventy Blog Template Go to eleventy base blog to clone the repository to your local file/folder.

The next example we'll look at goes more into depth of 11ty. We are creating this site from this template.

Say you want a more professonal looking site without having to do a lot of extra work, you’re in luck! 11ty has a community that has created templates that are available at this site. For this example, we will use the eleventy-base-blog, make sure to go to this repo and select the USE THIS TEMPLATE button to make a copy of the project in your namespace.
