Jeremy Knows Tech, A Blog Wireframe Adventure

In 2018, Jeremy decided that he wanted to create a tech blog from scratch. Without a lot of design knowledge, he asked me to help him out with a design.

Requirements:

  • Keep it simple

  • Keep it modern

  • Tech feeling

He also wanted several different pages such as:

  • Homepage

  • About

  • Contact

  • Categories

The following are the blog wireframes that were mocked up in Photoshop:

Homepage

The Homepage is based off of popular blogging layouts for posts. The grid view varies depending on what featured image or no image is shown and expands down the page as you view more.

About

The about page features him as well as a spot for Instagram posts or even a calendar for up and coming events Jeremy will be attending.

Contact

A simple contact page with no thrills.

Categories

Easy to navigate and figure out what you would like to read about. The blocks can stand on their own or feature an image in the background.

Blog Post Sample

Pretty basic but includes the important meta data for Google and SEO. He can add images and animations to his blog posts.

Final Outcome (as of February 2020)

Jeremy is hand coding his blog and learning how he goes. He has added his own touches to the finished product and updates it as he will. It still keeps in line with the original design.
