This is cool, think I’m going to implement something similar 👍 cheers Raymond.
Also, what was your reasoning behind switching from Hugo? Although I’ve set Hugo up before I’ve never really used it properly, how would you compare the two?

While Hugo was fast, I really, really, really disliked how it did things outside the norm. For example, I wanted to build a file that would be a JSON page of my last 5 blog entries. As much as I tried, I couldn't get Hugo to output JSON. I understand they support it now, but when I tried to understand the new feature, I just got more confused. I'll put that blame on me - maybe I just don't get how the folks behind Hugo think, but Jekyll just plain worked.
Interesting, well that’s useful to know,’I’ve had a good experience with Jekyll so far. I was considering using Hugo for a project, mainly because I like that it’s built woth Go 😄 and yeah the speed. But think I might just give it a miss, doesn’t sound worth it 👍

Of course - now I'm in love with Eleventy. :)
