I've been learning a ton about the working of #11ty It isn't really that hard, I just needed to wrap my mind around a few things. As a result, I rebuilt my site to be more data driven. It will be easier to use Obsidian as my editing UI now because I can control layout with yaml frontmatter instead of having to remember to use some HTML in my post body. Obsidian templates make that easy, its just hard to read and prone to editing errors.
