11ty Meetup - How I built my Books page

Feb 6, 2025

I presented at the February 6, 2025 Eleventy Meetup on how I built my Books page. Here's the video and a link to a PDF of the slides.

UPDATE: I have evolved in the way that I add a book to the books.json file. I'm finding that VS Code snippets, while they largely work, can be somewhat fragile when entering info. As a result, I've created a dedicated node script that does exactly what I want and provides the option to deal with the idiosyncrasies of the data entry, including handling things like "currently read" and "localCover". If you're interested, I've put the script on GitHub.
