Learn 11ty, Clojure and Cycle

Eleventy, or 11ty,  is a simple yet very powerful static site generator. It does not require any config to get started.

This what it will take you to get an 11ty project running.

```
npm install -g @11ty/eleventy
echo '# Page header' > README.md
eleventy
```

After watching this collection you will be able to:

* Bootstrap a simple 11ty website
* Use 11ty layouts
* Chaining multiple 11ty layouts
* Use 11ty Collections
* Create pages from data

...and much more

Eleventy was created to be a JavaScript alternative to Jekyll. It’s zero-config by default but has flexible configuration options. Eleventy works with your project’s existing directory structure.

Eleventy uses independent template engines. We don’t want to hold your content hostage. If you decide to use something else later, having your content decoupled in this way will make migration easier.

Getting Started with Eleventy

Cycle.js is a framework where your app is described as a simple function taking an event stream as input and outputting an event stream. 

Cycle.js builds on functional and reactive streams and is a JavaScript framework. What does that mean? In the course, André Staltz, the creator of Cycle.js, will explain it to us.

We'll start this course with an empty project and build out our own toy version of Cycle.js to understand exactly what's going on under the hood. When we have a solid base of how Cycle.js works we will move on to use the Cycle.js API and build an app using the Model-View-Intent pattern.

Cycle.js Fundamentals

Start from a blank project and build up to an Eleventy site that includes a blog collection and is prepared to source content from a headless CMS. You'll also learn how to add Sass as the styling solution, complete with triggering 11ty to re-compile when the Sass changes.

These lessons will help explain key 11ty features and concepts to help you make the most of this amazing static site generator.

By the last lesson, you'll have learned how to:
- define custom `input` and `output` directories
- create a layout that accesses front matter variables
- watch for Sass changes and include CSS in the build proces
- create an 11ty collection using `tags`
- define front matter for an entire collection
- make and apply a filter to a collection
- generate pages from an external data source, such as a CMS or API

Build An Eleventy (11ty) Site From Scratch

Clojure is a dynamic, general-purpose programming language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure for multithreaded programming. Clojure is a compiled language, yet remains completely dynamic – every feature supported by Clojure is supported at runtime. Clojure provides easy access to the Java frameworks, with optional type hints and type inference, to ensure that calls to Java can avoid reflection.

In this lesson I show what a Clojure keyword is and why we prefer them as keys in maps; and the three ways we can look up a value in a map.

Keywords and Map Lookup in Clojure and ClojureScript

In this video, you will learn to bootstrap an eleventy project.

we'll start from an empty directory, initialize it as an npm package, install `@11ty/eleventy` package and create the website entry point.

Eleventy can compile multiple file formats, HTML, markdown, liquid, and njk.

Check out the eleventy [docs](https://www.11ty.dev/docs/) for more information.

Bootstrap an eleventy project

In this video, you will learn how to use the eleventy layouts feature.
Eleventy Layouts are special templates that can be used to wrap other content.


for more information check the layouts [docs](https://www.11ty.dev/docs/layouts/)

Use eleventy layouts

In this video, you will learn how to use layout chaining with eleventy.
Layouts in eleventy can use other layouts. You can also use a different template engine across layouts. This is very handy if we want to wrap some pages with extra markup but not all the pages.

In this video, you will learn how to create pages from data in eleventy. a data source can be a JSON file or a js file.

Create pages from data in eleventy

In this video, you will learn how to use the collection feature in eleventy.
Collections will allow to group content under one tag and loop through it in your template files

Para iniciar con Clojure es necesario realizar algunas configuraciones e instalar algunas herramientas.
Lo primero es instalar [leiningen](https://leiningen.org) y configurar tu editor de código.
En este caso configuraremos VIM. Para esto instalaremos algunos ]plugins 

* [vim-fireplace](https://github.com/tpope/vim-fireplace)
* [vim-salve](https://github.com/tpope/vim-salve)
* [coc-conjure](https://github.com/jlesquembre/coc-conjure)

Configurar ambiente de desarrollo y VIM para Clojure

Begining from a brand new project, learn how to install Eleventy (11ty), and add `develop` and `build` scripts. Next, define a custom configuration to set preferred input and output directories. Then create a home page file and your first layout while learning how 11ty handles mixing templating languages.

Create an Eleventy (11ty) Site From Scratch

Learn how to add Sass to an Eleventy (11ty) project including directing 11ty to re-compile when Sass changes are made. This step involves adding two new functions to the `.eleventy.js` configuration: `addWatchTarget()` and `addPassthroughCopy()`. Then, define the link to the compiled CSS file within an 11ty layout.

Add Sass Compiling and Watch for Changes in Eleventy (11ty)

Create a blog directory with posts for your Eleventy (11ty) project, and learn how to define the posts as an 11ty collection using `tags`. Then make a blog index page and write a `for` loop with Nunjucks to output a list of each post linked to the post page.

Define an Eleventy (11ty) Collection to Create a Blog

Filters in Eleventy (11ty) are a way to mutate data including string variables or arrays such as collections. Learn to create a filter for use on a collection which will select a random item from the collection.

Apply a Filter to an Eleventy (11ty) Collection

Eleventy (11ty) is able to run any JavaScript or Node functions at build time. This makes it possible to source external data such as from a headless CMS or other API. Learn how to generate pages from data pulled from a mock CMS using the 11ty `pagination` method and designate the data as an 11ty collection. You'll also learn how to define variables for the page using `eleventyComputed`, and then write a `for` loop to output a link to each page.

Generate Eleventy (11ty) Pages From External Data

We are starting to get a better architecture for these UI apps. But we still have a problem of repeating code for the sliders, since they share so much in common in looks and functionality. This lessons shows how we can create a generic labeled slider as a main() function receiving properties as sources.

Create a Generic Cycle.js Component

Our app is not yet a BMI calculator, because it only has two sliders, but doesn't show the calculated BMI number. In this lesson we will learn how to export any stream from a child component and use it in the parent component, in order to display the BMI calculation on the DOM.

Export Values from Components through Sinks in Cycle.js

This lesson shows what can be learned next as a continuation of this course, and gives a recap on the core concepts: main for pure logic, drivers for side effects, run() to connect main and drivers, sources for read effects, sinks for write effects, and nesting Cycle.js apps to work as components.

Overview of Cycle.js

Let's see next how to use the HTTP driver to generate requests and capture responses. We will build a small app to fetch a single piece of data from a REST server and display that on the DOM.

Fetch Data using the Cycle.js HTTP Driver

Once we have a labeled slider component inside the main function, we should be able to create another labeled slider. This lesson teaches how to accomplish that, and make sure those two instances work independently of each other.

Use Multiple Independent Instances of a Cycle.js Component

We added classNames to pre-processing and post-processing steps when calling the LabeledSlider, in order to instances independent of each other. It would be better if we could hide these steps away. This lesson introduces the isolate() helper function to achieve that.
