After CSS, 11ty (Eleventy) is my favorite thing to talk about and create resources for. I'd like to share my new starting point for kickstarting an 11ty static site with Sass.

This starter is an evolution from my other projects that use 11ty and Sass, including:

• A more full-featured 11ty starter, the 11ty Netlify Jumpstart
• My in-depth CSS tutorial site ModernCSS.dev
• The CSS community site StyleStage.dev
• And my portfolio/freelance site, ThinkDoBeCreate

This new Sass Skeleton starter features absolutely nothing beyond a base HTML5 template and the essential setup to watch and compile your Sass alongside 11ty.

It also includes minifiying and autoprefixing of styles during postbuild.

You can immediately start using it by generating a new repo from the template.
