Homepage Project
Posted on 20 September, 2020
I recently came across the Eleventy static site generator and have spent the last couple of weeks working on a side-project to have a personalised browser homepage/dashboard.
It`s a bit sparse at the moment ...
The dashboard is made from a series of panels, using data available from open-source APIs. Eleventy queries each API once, at build, and uses the data to generate a static site that is refreshed daily. The site is hosted on Netlify (using GitHub integration) and refreshed daily with a Netlify hook that's triggered from a IFTTF recipe.
My intention is to build out more panels, as time allows. For now you can check out the live homepage on Netlify.
