Jérôme tells us how he structures his Eleventy projects.
Appart from the content folder, this is almost exactly how I do myself, including in Pack11ty, my Eleventy project template, where there are additional magical tricks automations.
How I built my own excerpt for Markdown content in Eleventy
I was not really happy with Eleventy's native excerpt solution requiring just a separator and having the excerpt content preserved in the content, without any way to style it differently. So I tried different alternatives, and settled on a solution with some Markdown-it plugins and a bunch of regexes.
I've read the whole documentation for #Eleventy's WebC components: https://www.11ty.dev/docs/languages/webc/
Time to experiment, I guess!
In other news:
My #Eleventy starter project is now using Eleventy 2.0! 🥳
And my Eleventy plugin for responsive images based on standard Markdown syntax and usage of an image CDN/service is now compatible with Eleventy 2.0:

A bookmarklet to create a new link content Markdown on GitHub
When I was building my site on my local computer, I had a shell script to initialize a new Markdown file for sharing a link. When I moved to Cloudflare Pages 6 months ago, it opened a new opportunity to share links more easily in my Eleventy content, directly from the page I wanted to share. Bookmarklets are still an awesome invention!
Updating webmentions on a static site
When I started using Webmention on this site (more than 5 years ago!), I was building the site on my local computer, and uploading the build result on my hosting with. I've moved to Cloudflare Pages 6 months ago, which means webmentions where updated only when I pushed new content to GitHub. Here's how I fixed that.
