December 2025

  1. One of my objectives for this week off was to connect a CMS to my 11ty site to make it easier to post from mobile - here is PagesCMS editing my repo directly, with Netlify auto publishing any commits. ✅

    A website with black background showing an image post being edited online.

  2. Fresh from my shock at finding Starbucks open for my 6am train came my shock at buying my first ever +£7 coffee. Finishing off last nights work getting image transforms and feeds working together in the first 15 minutes of my journey did soften the blow.

    Looking along the platform at Preston Railway Station towards Starbucks, illuminated by street lighting early morning.

  3. I've removed image transform from my 11ty site, I was concerned about build time and resource usage once I start to bring legacy content across, replcing it with a webp conversion action in automator on my images folder. Pagination is the final item left on my initial todo list, but is trickier than it should be due to the dynamic filtration in my templates.

  4. I've made good progress on my 11ty site this weekend with new topic archives collating content types for each topic, and linking through from content meta sections, with a topics index page. I'm struggling to paginate archive pages though due to the dynamic content filtering inside my templates.

  5. So I have my site running on 11ty now. I still have a lot of work to do on content ingestion into feeds - I'll probably end up writing a feed template. I need to fix the conflict between my rss and image-transform plugin setup, and to finish various general template improvements.
