A diagnostic guide for when Eleventy global data files in _data don't appear in templates—covering recognizable symptoms, a cause table, ordered checks, targeted fixes, and escalation steps.
Stop forcing everything into _posts. Learn how to use Jekyll Collections to create structured, custom content types like project portfolios or staff directories.
Eleventy's data cascade lets you define configuration once at the global level, override per directory, and fine-tune per template—without custom plugins. Here's how the four layers merge, where arrays replace instead of concatenate, and how to debug with --dry-run --output=json.
Stop overloading your tags. Learn how to use Hugo's custom taxonomies to create structured classification systems like 'Series' or 'Difficulty' for better content organization.
Stop repeating layout and tag declarations in every Markdown file. Learn how the Eleventy Data Cascade merges global, directory, and template data to keep your project DRY.
Hugo content bundles let you co-locate content with its assets and create hierarchical sections without extra configuration. This guide covers branch vs. leaf bundles, a worked documentation example, permalink gotchas, and when to adopt (or avoid) the pattern.
Eleventy's data cascade offers four practical layers for shared values. This guide compares global data, directory data, layout front matter, and page front matter, then shows a scratch project that proves the override order.
Eleventy's --incremental flag caches the dependency graph to rebuild only changed templates, cutting dev-server latency from seconds to milliseconds on large sites. Here's how it works, a hands-on verification, and the plugin caveats that can silently break it.
Step-by-step diagnostic guide for Hugo's resources.Resize: identify missing assets, bad paths, malformed specs, unsupported formats, and slow builds, with fixes and escalation steps.
