Pfiou, what a week. Greatt closing. Went to a Claude community event. That was three hours ago. And since then, with some ambient music in the headphones, the mood just set in to do a bit of no-pressure baseline work.

I'll have to be mindful of the time this time. Can someone please remind me of it in an hour? 😄

Ok. My list of open loops for the project is now updated. During the week, i'll usually write open loops in my journal.

I think I'll start with low effort docs work and report back when done.

Alright low-effort docs done and should be live by the time I hit the "Reply" button.

Folks say "Celebrate the quick wins" or something of that nature. So, euh... Nutella sandwich anyone?

I'm leaving it at that tonight. I'm exhausted from the week! 😅

Hopefully I can make space this weekend to continue this session.

Resuming session.

The assets modules have been nagging me for attention all week.

Using the `eleventy.before` event for processing assets has been on my radar for a very long while but I just stuck to what I knew for the current implementation.

@equilibriumuk 's post about it caught my eye last thursday and I'm keen on following his advice for the plugin.

11tybundle.dev never fails. I now stumbled upon another very interesting approach. From a bird's eye view it seems that I can 10x* the way I do it now.

This is the good stuff @chrisburnell & @nhoizey ☺️

*: manner of speaking

How I shaved 1.5 minutes off my Eleventy build time

I had a revelation earlier today that solved a long-standing performance issue I’ve been having with the initial build of my Eleventy website, and here’s how it saved me a bunch of time!

Chris Burnell

These lines in particular caught my eye in Chris's way:

It's the problem that the 11ty dir files get processed too because of adding the JS template. I solved/not solved this by exclduing them from collections in the module and also explicitly in tose dir files:

I've been mulling on maybe trying a combination of both approaches. I think it's similar to that pattern caching the contentMap.

And I should probably start typing something in my editor 😅

I've been very much taking my time to chill, going all-in in "snail pace" mode.

Also here's my new session buddy I found on the street this evening.

Oh and also I have no idea how to thread properly apparently 🤷🏽
