 &lt;p&gt;When I &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/helen_clx/status/1621696817795854336&quot;&gt;shared the first version of my developer portfolio website on Twitter&lt;/a&gt;, my tweet was liked and replied to by both &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/ossia/status/1621729431009071104&quot;&gt;Quincy Larson&lt;/a&gt;, the founder of freeCodeCamp, and &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/Ksound22/status/1621739428057079808&quot;&gt;Kolade Chris&lt;/a&gt; themselves, despite me not even tagging freeCodeCamp nor Kolade.&lt;/p&gt;

-&lt;p&gt;As my front-end web development skills grew, I made my own improvements to the code of my portfolio website, most notably revamping the CSS to a mobile-first approach. In August 2023, I also &lt;a href=&quot;https://helenclx.github.io/blog/posts/2024-04-11-rebuilding-my-developer-portfolio-with-eleventy/2023-08-21-Welcome-to-Helen-Codes&quot;&gt;launched my tech and coding blog&lt;/a&gt; to document my coding learnings and talk about various tech topics. At first, I tried to build my blog with a Jekyll template in a separate repository, but switched to &lt;a href=&quot;https://zonelets.net/&quot;&gt;Zonelets&lt;/a&gt;, so I can write and manage my blog in HTML, CSS and JavaScript, languages I was already familiar with, and moved my blog to my portfolio website&#39;s own repository.&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;p&gt;However, as my portfolio website grew, I began to realise that writing all the code by hand makes a website tedious to maintain and update, especially if the website also includes a blog, since making new blog posts would require copy and pasting the same HTML heading over and over.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;I started to research for ways to dynamically build a website, and as a result, I discovered more about static site generators (SSGs). I first heard of static site generators through GitHub and Jekyll, but I abandoned Jekyll after my brief attempt in building my blog with it, because Ruby is not a language I am familiar with, not to mention inconvenient to set up on Windows. Fortunately, I eventually discovered the ultimate solution to my problem: &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.11ty.dev/&quot;&gt;Eleventy&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;Eleventy, often abbreviated as 11ty, stands out among other SSGs in its flexibility. It not only supports many template languages including HTML, Markdown, JavaScript, Nunjucks, Liquid, and even having its own web component template called &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.11ty.dev/docs/languages/webc/&quot;&gt;WebC&lt;/a&gt;, but also allows users to mix and match different template languages to build their own static websites. I like to be able to have control over how I build my own projects, which makes Eleventy an attractive option.&lt;/p&gt;
