Could probably reuse the one from the CLI.

It seems that cloudflare workers dont allow the use of eval, this is used by ETA (the templating library we use). I dont see an immediate way around this.

It does also present an intresting attack vector for this if we do self host this.

I think it's possible to use Vite to precompile the eval into string templates.
https://github.com/storipress/unplugin-eta/ It's for Eta v2, but I don't think we necessarily need v3 features.

Ohh intresting, thanks. It seems it uses ETA.compileToString to generate the code usually consumed via eval. Doing this at build would likely be a benefit everywhere this is ran.

Well, I tried it, doesn't seem to be working. Still spits out Function calls.

Eta v3's compile seems to guard the Function call, so it works fine here

Custom made Vite plugin :P

Thanks, I have cherry-picked this into my branch. Ill continune from here :)

For clarity, I changed the Dev Container to use the node user instead of root as it messes with the file permission on Linux host.

Ah, I thought it was to solve the warning that jekyll prints :) Solved 2 things at once 👍
