This is fantastic!
I don't like "Your DevBlog delivered". i'll try to think of something.

But I love this mockup. it's BROOOOTIFUL

Thanks Matt :) I've done a little more work on it since the last screenshot, Here is a new one.

Not sure yet if the three across or the staggered three down the middle is going to be easier. Think it probably depends on how detailed we want to be with the getting started steps

@mattstauffer what are your thoughts on this? Worth pursuing or should I just drop it? I know you are a busy dude so totally understand either way.

@JacobBennett I love it man. I think I actually prefer the current Gistlog logo (which is intentionally similar to the Gists logo) but I love everything else. Thanks!

I worked on a landing page prototype.

Feedback would be much appreciated.
Please note that I still need to do a LOT of cleanup work and make it responsive. I only quickly prototyped it this afternoon.

Cheers,
Seb

@hiwye great job on this! Off to a good start. Looks like you are planning on implementing your own flex-box grid instead of using bootstraps? If that is the case, is there anything on this landing page that uses bootstrap styles? If not you could remove that dep I suppose.

@JacobBennett Bootstrap isn't used on the landing page, I think it's being used on the create page.
I created a seperate less file for the landing page to avoid having all the blog styles in there aswell.

Plain flexbox is perfect for this case since it allows for easy alignment both horizontally and vertically without the bloat of a framework like bootstrap.

Any more feedback?
