Emily Mikl Professional Website

This website was generated with Eleventy, and uses Nunchuks as the template language. NOTE: If using WebStorm IDE, set the file type in the explorer to Handlebars.

##Creating Layouts and Pages ###Layouts

1. To create a new layout template, create a new file with the .njk extension under _includes/layouts.
2. Existing layouts that can be used include:
   1. base.njk - The base layout which includes the header, footer, and main content area.
   2. page.njk - The basic layout for a web page. Extends base.njk.
   3. post.njk - Layout for a blog post. ###Pages To create a new static website page, create a new Markdown file, either within an existing directory, or a new directory. At the top of the page, include the page title and the page.njk layout:

      ---
title: Page Title
layout: layouts/page.njk
---

If the page.njk template doesn't work for your page, create a new layout in the layouts folder.

##Run locally

1. Clone repo locally git clone .
2. Run npm install to install dependencies.
3. Start your development server npm run start.

##Development Scripts npm run start

Run npm run start to start the project locally. This script will remove and re-create the _site artifacts folder where the content is served from, run the postcss:run script and copy any necessary files to the _site folder before starting the dev server using eleventy --serve.

npm run build

Run npm run build to build the project for production. The build script removes the _site artifacts folder, runs eleventy, and checks the environment variable for a prod environment before it runs postcss.

postcss:run

The postcss:run script runs postcss on the styles/style.css file and publishes the minified file under the _site artifacts directory. The postcss configuration file postcss.config.js is located at the root of the project.

##Tailwind CSS This project uses Tailwind CSS as its style library.

Configuration is located in the root of the project at tailwind.config.js.

The main stylesheet is located under styles/style.css. This file is where the Tailwind includes are brought in. More information can be found in the Tailwind documentation.

The Tailwind configuration is configured to purge any un-used classes at build time. The purge configuration is configured to search for any html or js files in the application. See the link above for more information.
