@b0rk odd, I thought Netlify bought 11ty!

@Siilwyn @b0rk sorta? Zach went to work for them but retained rights IIRC, and then he did a crowdfund for it to work solo after they decided to abandon the effort, and then came to an agreement with Font Awesome.

@cthos @Siilwyn hope it works out well, it seems like it could be cool from the kickstarter

@b0rk ewww how did I not know that. Is there a community fork of 11ty that's not controlled by a corporate overload?

@liaizon @b0rk Well, it’s still Zach working on it.
But if you’re looking for something more lightweight, https://mastrojs.github.io is still independent!
