Description
Currently when you search some 11ty docs in search engines, it's possible to see a result like this:
This is because we have many version or feature variants of the documentation living in production. We need to set a canonical url that points to the latest, main version of that page.
I'm eager to open a PR for this once I have some time but I wanted to report this first.
