Eleventastic

A simple Eleventy Starter Kit, my base for all new 11ty projects. (Demo Site)

Features

• CSS Pipeline (Sass, CleanCSS)
• JS Bundling (Webpack)
• SVG Icon Sprite Generation
• Critical CSS
• HTML Minification
• No external builds, everything runs through 11ty

Getting Started

To install the necessary packages, run this command in the root folder of the site:

npm install

Commands

• Run npm start for a development server and live reloading
• Run npm run build to generate a production build

Deploy a fork of this template to Netlify

CSS

Styling works with Sass. The main index file is in src/assets/styles/main.scss. Import any SCSS code you want in there; it will be processed and optimized. The output is in dist/assets/styles/main.css

JS

Javascript can be written in ES6 syntax. The main index file is in src/assets/scripts/main.js. It will be transpiled to ES5 with babel, bundled together with webpack, and minified in production. The output is in dist/assets/scripts/main.js

SVG Icons

All SVG files added to src/assets/icons will be bundled into a symbol sprite file. The SVG filename will then be used as the symbol identifier and the icon can be used as a shortcode.

For example, if you have a github.svg file in that folder, you can display it anywhere by using {% icon "github" %} in your templates.

Critical CSS

Currently, critical CSS will only be inlined in the head of the homepage. This is done by using the critical package in an automatic transform.
