Welcome, happy to have you here! This is my first post using 11ty.
As of right now, I’m trying to set up my site in github pages. Ultimately, I want it to be a cute casual place where I just post my projects and talk about stuff. I was really inspired by ohhelloanna.blog and saw it was built with 11ty. I think before that I had only give it a try one time, and it didn’t go well. So here I go again, but this time using the aid of ChatGPT to help me through some of the parts I don’t understand. I’m also talking shit to it because it’s giving me wrong directions. It’s kinda crazy going through this process as a relative beginner because I have to try to figure out which parts are wrong and which parts are okay. Like ChatGPT gave me a template for the index and post pages (njk files) and I had no idea it had nunjucks formatting for the date, so I was getting errors when trying to post. And it turns out I have to put in some sort of nunjucks filter to get that date to display correctly.

It’s been not that long since August, but I’ve moved on from 11ty (which was great and simple, 10/10 would use again) and trying out Astro, which is really cool and there’s lots of starter themes. I’m using [Astro Sphere] (https://github.com/markhorn-dev/astro-sphere), and I’ve tried out Incluud’s [Accessible Astro Starter] (https://github.com/incluud/accessible-astro-starter) - which isn’t for me. SO NOW, I will be going through my content and posts to adapt everything for deployment for my website with the Sphere theme… here I go!
