About

Eleventy (11ty) is an open-source static site generator built on Node.js that transforms templates written in various languages—Markdown, Liquid, Nunjucks, and more—into static HTML sites. It emphasizes fast build times, zero client-side JavaScript by default, and full control over output without injecting its own markup. It is highly flexible, zero-config to start, and supports incremental adoption in existing projects.

Problem

Developers need a fast, flexible, and framework-agnostic way to generate static websites without being locked into heavy JavaScript frameworks or slow build pipelines.

For

web developers building static websites

How it works

Eleventy compiles template files in supported languages from a project directory into a static HTML output folder, with optional local development server and hot-reloading.
