[docs] Switch NJK to WEBC for layout

[markcaron]

Do it.

i'm concerned about webc's lack of a satisfying dsd support. as an alternative to webc, I would like us to consider lit-11ty

lit-11ty

this? https://github.com/lit/lit/tree/main/packages/labs/eleventy-plugin-lit

[bennypowers]

yes, that or something like it. the idea being that instead of webc components we'd write uxdot-specific lit components and ssr them by way of dsd, using the plugin

Do we need a list of uxdot/elements that we are going to create for this? Elements that aren't quite RHDS elements but need a home.

Here is a shortlist that exist or might be additionally needed (with screenshots of specific parts I'm referencing):

• masthead - need to include github link
• article/page header (maybe an option for with or without slotted subnav)
  
• sample/example - already being worked on in docs: samples #1350
• installation-tabs - already live
• maybe specialized rh-table usecase wrapper components?

Anyone have any other elements on the page they think might serve well as uxdot/components?

Given inclusion with 11ty-plugin-lit, how do we handle eleventy based templating? Are we still using njk for that? Do we just pair that down as much as possible what can go into a component and what can't?

Example: I want to loop through 11ty's data cascade?

[bennypowers]

we already have docs/assets/elements (iirc) and more in the docs: sample pr

Ok so the idea is there but no actual way to do that yet.

If we are to get this done this quarter, then that doesn't look promising given the timeline.

So will we have to fall back to something like: <some-component name="{{ data.name}}"> that is still powered by njk? After compile then passing the compiled html output to the plugin for DSD'ing?

[bennypowers]

maybe lit/lit#2485 (comment)

[markcaron]

Going a different route with components.

Cleanup for potential move to using elventy-lit-plugin has been done in the docs rewrite PR: #1465
