02 – Tools For WordPress Designers
Sidekick Gutenberg Blocks
The WordPress tools I built for my own client work (and this site as well). Now, something you can build with too.
More layout freedom. Fewer custom blocks.
I built Sidekick to solve two Gutenberg frustrations: rigid columns and a menu block that gets in the way.
Columns that adapt.
A Columns parent and flexible Column children give you control over widths, spacing, alignment, and backgrounds across screen sizes. Add core blocks for the content.
Menus you can control.
A dedicated navigation block with controls for dropdowns, spacing, styling, and mobile menus.
One parent. Flexible columns.

A narrow column beside a wider one. The same core content blocks.

Three columns, with extra room in the middle. One reusable layout system.
Optional Companion
Sidekick WordPress Theme
My boilerplate starting point for WordPress projects. Use it if it fits your workflow—the Blocks plugin works independently and does not require this theme.

Lightning Fast Websites
I build awesome websites that are goofy fast, easy to manage, and reduce operational friction. Check out a few recent projects below.
