• Basic site navigation with eleventy-navigation
• Blog categories & category based navigation
• Image optimisation with Eleventy-img
• SVG icons with svg-icon-sprite
• SEO (sitemap, metadata)
• Luxon for handling dates & times
• A few basic Eleventy configurations, filters and shortcodes
• Nunjucks templates
• Sass & the necessary scripts to compile Sass
