I recently became interessted in learning about static site generators. So I decided to start a little 11ty blog, in which I teach people, who are new to self-hosting, how to securely set up their own server with Ubuntu and Docker.

For now, I've got my Beginners Guide series as well as a more detailed introduction to SSH and its features. I plan to eventually write down all I've learned about self-hosting in the past 20 years.

Hope it ends up being helpful for some of you.

Awesome to read. Thank you. Also, your images aren’t loading for me.

Thanks, glad you liked it.

Yeah, I know that the images are borked. But it's pretty late here and I was too lazy to fix it. I'll fix it tomorrow.

I get that. Sometimes there are things for another day. I hope you get a good nights rest

You should check out the official 11ty images plugin if you haven't already. Itll generate multiple sizes for your output. Its the best feature imo.

Took me an embarrassing amount of time to realize my mistake. I forgot to actually use the npx @11ty/eleventy build command instead of always relying on npx @11ty/eleventy --serve. Now the images are properly linked and transformed / optimized.
