I built a site with Eleventy!

...and I loved it!

Really enjoyable development experience. Very logical indeed. Bravo!

This site is a simple little example site, but does include a commenting engine which automatically pulls in new comments from an API during each build (triggered by the submission and a little slack intervention)

Awesome! I’ll put this on the site—thank you!

One question @philhawksworth, I see you named your config file eleventy.js instead of the default .eleventy.js. Was there a technical reason for that or just preference? If there’s some kind of environment issue there I’d love to know—thanks!

[philhawksworth]

No technical reason. Just personal preference. I like the slightly better visibility of it that way. It feels like it sits nicely next to my gulpfile.js and netlify.toml

Great—thank you!
