# 11Blog

11Blog is an open-source, self-hosted blogging platform built with the static site generator [11ty](https://www.11ty.dev/).

## Core Principles 

* **Simplicity and Speed**: Designed to be easy to set up and incredibly fast for end-users.

* **Customization**: Offers a range of customization options to make your blog truly yours.

* **Markdown-based**: Write your posts in Markdown for easy formatting and publishing.

* **Static Site Generation**: Enjoy the security and speed of a purely static site that can be hosted anywhere.

* **SEO Friendly**: Comes with SEO best practices out of the box.

3. **Write your posts**

    Posts are written in Markdown and stored in `./src/_posts/`. Simply add your Markdown files here, and they'll be processed into blog posts.
