Long Build Time for Docs

See original GitHub issue

Description

I’m at the airport and cloned the repo so I could read the docs offline on the plane. Installing, downloading, and compiling Ruby and the required Jekyll deps took a long time (> 5mins). What do you think of converting the docs from Jekyll (Ruby) to 11ty (JavaScript) to keep the docs within the JS stack? Happy to take this on if everyone would find it beneficial to remove the Ruby dependency and migrate to JavaScript/npm.

Steps to Reproduce

$ time gem install bundler jekyll

This should be addressed by #1076

I would love to do this. I’ve been using 11ty a lot recently and really like it. Not sure where this falls on our team priority list though. Contributions would be very welcome!
