This is an Eleventy / 11y static site generator using a WordPress.com blog as its data source. It pulls posts and pages from the WordPress.com REST API, supplies the data to Eleventy templates, uploads the result to an S3 bucket, and optionally invalidates a CloudFront distribution.
It also provides dark-mode-aware syntax highlighting using Prism.
In other words, it allows you to use WordPress.com as your CMS but publish a static site to S3. This repo powers my personal site but you are free to fork and adapt it for your own purposes.
Copy config.example.js to config.js and edit it to provide your site details.
Start Eleventy's dev server to work on your templates. Note that data will only be fetched once and cached. If you make changes in WordPress.com, you'll need to stop and restart.
npm startPublishing is manual. Make sure your AWS credentials are available via
environment variables or ~/.aws/credentials.
