@fontawesome Wow! That is, well, ummmm…Awesome! Congratulations!
Will this mean I will have to register for an account to use 11ty?
I'm not very happy with how Web Awesome turned out.
No, absolutely not. Build Awesome will continue to be free and open source!
Also happy to take feedback on how you think Web Awesome could improve! I know a few folks over there on that team 😀
My main feedback is that I don't like having to register for an account just to use a web component library.
I know it's technically not required, but they hide the alternative instructions away in the documentation.
a ha, yeah I see what you mean. All of the “Get Started” CTAs take you to account login. I’ll pass that along!
Heard. Thanks for the feedback
Update: we are fixing this. The current process doesn't reflect our commitment to open source software and will be changed very soon.
We are not a big corporation. We are a team of ~20 people working on open source projects. We do it for a living, and we're only able to do it for a living *because* of our optional pro offerings.
But it's clear we got carried away, which admittedly doesn't feel great. Thanks for speaking out.
Just wanted to circle back. It's as simple as copy and paste again. webawesome.com

Will this be powered by an updated version of webc? Or special tags/attributes in any of the given template languages?
