Last January, I announced the release of a guide I had written for building a simple blog in Eleventy. Now that Eleventy has hit 2.0, I took some time this morning to look at the guide and see what could be updated. The first thing I noticed was that I had a heck of a lot of typos. I fixed those. I then went through the two main versions of the blog (before and after UI was added) and updated the dependencies to the 2.0 release of Eleventy.

That being said, I didn’t do anything else. This is not to say that the 2.0 release wasn’t lacking in new features, but as my guide is meant to be as simple as possible, I wasn’t on the lookout to add any new features if it didn’t make sense for the blog. Of course, one of the big features of 2.0 is a big reduction in dependencies, so right away people will benefit from it.

Anyway, you can find the guide here: https://cfjedimaster.github.io/eleventy-blog-guide/guide.html.
