Modern, lightweight Eleventy v4 starter with Tailwind/Pico, Blades, CMS and multisiting 🥷

1. Eleventy v4 by default
   ^{both v4 (Build Awesome) & v3 supported}
2. "Thin client" architecture
   ^{thanks Blades[-plugin] for reusability}
3. Tailwind v4 included
   ^{with Typography plugin & Blades[-kit]}
4. Sveltia CMS included
   ^{modern Decap/Netlify CMS successor}
5. Multisite support
   ^{thanks to symlink-based setup}
6. One-click start
   

Build Awesome Starter is an advanced version of 🥷 Bladeswitch starter:

• BUT focusing exclusively on Eleventy v4 and adding Tailwind v4 support.
• It reuses same Blades[-plugin] to symlink eleventy.config.js by default (so you don't have to maintain it anymore!)
• It also reuses Nunjucks version of the same universal Blades[-kit]:
  • universal means you can switch .njk to .liquid any time
  • universal also means you can switch from Tailwind to Pico.css or even bare-metal Blades[.css]

As simple as:

npm install    # dependencies
npm start      # development
npm run stage  # serve production version locally
               # ready to deploy! 🚀

CMS will be available locally at http://localhost:8080/admin/ (or similar port).
