I have just released version 3.0 of Eleventy Excellent, now fully on ESM and with many other changes, including my attempts to learn more about WebC and web components. Contributions very welcome! 💚

@cjerrington That's what I want to help with better! It's not really about moving off Netlify, but keeping other options equally open - for example the 301 redirects I use only work with Netlify, as far as I know.

@cjerrington If you come up with a good system don't hesitate to PR!

Today I had to use a particularly bad UI of a digital music distribution service to upload a song from my partner. I got severe anxiety symptoms. Conclusion: I can no longer survive in what the real world has to deal with in terms of user interfaces

Boah, ist diese Überischt über alle Kinos in Deutschland genial!!!!

Artikel darüber: https://tonsky.me/blog/allekinos/

Danke für den Hinweis an @lene

Aktuell nur für den Desktop. Verständlich, denn mobil sind umfangreiche Tabellen die Hölle. Aber für meine Recherche nach Filmen werde ich demnächst diese Seite mit dem Tablet besuchen.

Danke @nikitonsky

@jensgro @nikitonsky nicht wahr?? Habe das direkt an meine ganze Familie in DE geschickt.

@PaGn @jensgro bestimmt gibt es einiges zu verbessern/ ergänzen. Zum Beispiel sollten die Bilder statt title lieber alt Attribute haben. Aber die Idee ist genial

Maybe this is how we can win! We shall all go and build ad free aggregators like @nikitonsky did for german cinemas. Websites, that are only designed to make all data accessible to users as quickly and easily as possible.

New design, same website. I learned a few things, changing the theme of my website.

@cjerrington I think that might nave happened because of whitespace at the beginning of the string.

Here is the fix:

Hey @lene I’ve been looking at your excellent eleventy template and it’s been working great getting things moved over.

Have you tried the new alpha eleventy 3.0 with it yet?

lene,
@lene@front-end.social avatar

@cjerrington Yes! The v3 branch runs on Eleventy 3.0 and uses ES modules. I also started using webC for components. https://github.com/madrilene/eleventy-excellent/tree/v3

"Unlike a human being, varying your prompting will never reveal anything that isn’t already in the model — the insight that separates products from commodities. All the model can do is put those words in a synthetic mouth."

I found the cited article about AI and UX by @PavelASamsonov in @eric's "linkdump", which has become my favorite newsletter.

The link to the article can be found in last Wednesday's issue. I highly recommend subscribing to it!

Hello @lene, love your eleventy-excellent theme! I have a quick question on it. For the .njk files, are we able to use both .njk and .md files to create pages? Sorry, new to eleventy. :)

lene,
@lene@front-end.social avatar

@beardedtechguy Hi Kyle! I prefer to use .md files in the pages folder if they fit into an existing layout, but of course you can also put .njk files there. This is just how I like to organise my projects, Eleventy is very flexible and allows you to do as you wish

@lene Thank you for all of your hard work on Eleventy Excellent! I’ve been loving all of the features.

I was wondering if you have to add links to the og images in frontmatter in order to get them to work? I have verified they are generating for me, but for some reason they aren’t showing up when I share a link. Thank you in advance for your help!

lene,
@lene@front-end.social avatar

@ehqo Hi, thank you, your site looks great!
Looking into the source code, I saw that there is a whitepace between your domain name and the path:

There was an issue about that and it is fixed now: https://github.com/madrilene/eleventy-excellent/issues/39

When doing book reviews for O'Reilly, one option is to be paid in books! Here is part of my haul -

My goodness that CSS book is chonky, @estelle and @Meyerweb ! I knew it'd be big, hahahah, but at 1100 pages it truly has biblical proportions!

@deadparrot @addyosmani

The CSS book seen obliquely from the side showing how deep it is (just under 6cm or 2.5 inches).

New post: “Two Invitations”

https://blog.kizu.dev/two-invitations/

In the last few weeks, I received two invitations: an invitation to speak at the next CSS Day, and an invitation to join the CSS Working Group as an Invited Expert.

Of course, I did accept both of them.

@lene Hi Lene! I’m considering to learn 11ty and use it for my personal blog. Just wanted to drop by and say that your starter theme Eleventy Excellent looks awesome! Really hope I can learn enough to use that!

@anders No doubt! Have fun!
