ModeWorkshop

A project scaffold for getting building with Eleventy quickly.
Made by Phil for Phil, but perhaps you might also find it useful.

This site is a starting point

From this point we should already have:

Eleventy with a skeleton site
A date format filter for Nunjucks based on Luxon
A tiny CSS pipeline with PostCSS
A tiny inline JS pipeline. (Test a console.log message)
JS search index generator
Netlify Dev for testing Netlify redirects
Serverless (FaaS) development pipeline with Netlify Dev and Netlify Functions

Links from an external data source

These links were sourced from hawksworx.com at build time.

Prerequisite

Node and NPM

Running locally

# install the dependencies
npm install

# External data sources can be stashed locally
npm run seed

# It will then be available locally for building with
npm run start

Add some Netlify helpers

Netlify Dev adds the ability to use Netlify redirects, proxies, and serverless functions.

# install the Netlify CLI in order to get Netlify Dev
npm install -g netlify-cli

# run a local server with some added Netlify sugar in front of Eleventy
netlify dev

A serverless functions pipeline is included via Netlify Dev. By running netlify dev you'll be able to execute any of your serverless functions directly like this:

Redirects and proxies

Netlify's Redirects API can provide friendlier URLs as proxies to these URLs.
