When to use
Use for a small site with a short destination list. Choose footer-link-columns for grouped navigation. Variations: omit social links, reduce links to four, or add a short descriptor under Logo.
Hierarchy
Logo anchors the centre, followed by six 14px links, four social links and 14px muted copyright. Limit links to 1 word and copyright to a short year-and-owner line. Social controls have accessible names.
Responsive
The centred stack stays the same at all widths. Navigation wraps into centred lines with 12px row gaps. No breakpoint changes spacing, type or alignment.
Layout
A white footer has a neutral-200 top border and a 1152px max-w-6xl container with 24px side and 48px vertical padding. A centred flex column uses 24px gaps between Logo, six-link nav, four-link social row and copyright. The 24px logo glyph sits beside semibold text. Navigation has 24px column and 12px row gaps; social glyphs are 20px with 20px gaps.
States
Text links hover from neutral-900 to neutral-600. Social links hover to neutral-600. All content is static. Every enabled control has a 2px neutral-900 focus outline offset 2px. There are no disabled controls.
